FeNO Information Session

Tuesday February 11, 2025, 12:00pm CST

 

This webinar will be an introduction to FeNO. Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is a measurement of the level of inflammatory markers in exhaled breath. FeNO is proving to be an increasingly important marker for airway inflammation. The measurements can be used to support the diagnoses of allergic and eosinophilic asthma and provide individualized therapy. Providing physicians with a quick, non-invasive measurement of airway inflammation, FeNO can help ensure that patients receive the correct diagnosis, medications and treatment needed. Respiratory Therapists can utilize FeNO measurements when educating patients on why medication adherence, avoiding triggers and maintaining a healthy life-style is essential.

Duration: 1 hour

This education webinar awards 1 CRCE, PFT content specific

How do we diagnose asthma?  Research and guidelines tell us we should not diagnose asthma based on symptoms alone.  What objective tests should be utilized?  Spirometry with bronchodilator is the first test.  But what if it is normal and the patient is still reporting symptoms?  What comes next?  The bronchial challenge tests provide objective information which should be included to diagnose patients.  Learn about direct and indirect challenges test during this webinar and how they can assist in properly diagnosing your patients.
