Advanced Diagnostics for Pediatric Lung Disorders With Oscillometry

Welcome to the PediPro video series, where we explore the complexities of pediatric healthcare through expert case studies and clinical insights. In this 6th case study, Dr. Neeraj Gupta, a renowned pediatric pulmonologist, presents a fascinating case on the nuanced diagnosis and management of rare congenital lung anomalies.

The case, "Advanced Diagnostics for Pediatric Lung Disorders with Oscillometry," revolves around a 4-year-old child diagnosed with right lung hypoplasia—a condition marked by incomplete lung development and potential long-term respiratory compromise. Dr. Gupta emphasizes the diagnostic power of oscillometry in evaluating mixed pulmonary pathologies, especially in young children, where conventional methods are often limited.

Through this case, we gain a deeper understanding of how functional assessments, combined with imaging and clinical evaluation, can unmask coexisting conditions like reactive airway disease. Join us as we delve into this compelling example of precision diagnostics, multidisciplinary care, and the evolving role of oscillometry in pediatric respiratory medicine. Tune in to learn more!
