Abstract
The nature of upper and lower airway obstruction can usually be read from the form of the pressure-flow diagram obtained by body plethysmography during spontaneous breathing. The analysis of the pathological mechanisms of airway obstruction was verified by the clinical picture, anatomical findings and other functional explorations of the lung like chest X-rays, bronchoscopy and ventilation-perfusion studies with radioactive gases. The analysis of the form of the pressure-flow curves obtained with a perfectly on BTPS-condition stabilized rebreathing system in the body plethysmograph is more useful than the drawing of additional resistance lines.Keywords
