Resumo: |
Objective: To obtain spirometry in a representative sample of healthy Brazilian children's respiratory point of view of 3 to 12 years of age and test the validity of the multi-ethinic reference values for spirometry for the 3-95 years age range proposed by Global Lung Initiative (GLI ) 2012 in our population. Methods: Multicenter cross-sectional study of Brazilian children in 3 regions of Brazil. Data were collected between 2010 and 2012. We use the calculation of Z-scores of each individual software by Global Lung Initiative. Results: Spirometry was obtained satisfactorily in 456 children aged between three and 12 years (45.8% male) and 70% were white, with the collaboration of 10 Brazilian centers. Of the 5 variables, only FEV1 had a mean above 0.5 suggesting a slight disagreement with the GLI 2012. Conclusion: In summary, the data collected in 10 collaborating centers suggest that equation GLI 2012 can be used in Brazilian children aged 3 to 12 years of age. |
