Peak expiratory flow rates in children under 5 years of age

A D Milner et al. Arch Dis Child. 1970 Dec.

Abstract

An initial trial on children between 2 years 4 months and 4 years 9 months showed that good reproducible results for peak expiratory flow rates could be obtained from children over the age of 3 years using the low-range Wright Peak Flow Meter. Results on 92 normal children between the age of 3 and 5 years are reported.
