How Are Ventilation Channels Assessed in Children?
Pediatricians use a variety of methods to assess the ventilation channels in children:
Physical Examination: Listening to the lungs with a stethoscope to detect abnormal sounds like wheezing or crackles. Pulmonary Function Tests: Measuring the volume and flow of air during inhalation and exhalation to assess lung function. Imaging Studies: Using X-rays or CT scans to visualize the airways and detect any abnormalities. Bronchoscopy: A procedure that involves inserting a camera into the airways to directly view the ventilation channels.
