    • Left vocal cord paralysis, lung function and exercise capacity in young adults born extremely preterm with a history of neonatal patent ductus arteriosus surgery: A national cohort study 

      Engan, Mette; Engeset, Merete Salveson; Sandvik, Lorentz; Engesæter, Ingvild Øvstebø; Øymar, Knut Asbjørn Alexander; Vollsæter, Maria; Røksund, Ola Drange; Hufthammer, Karl Ove; Halvorsen, Thomas; Clemm, Hege Synnøve Havstad; Gamlemshaug, Ole Christer Oma (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Background: Left vocal cord paralysis (LVCP) is a known complication of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) surgery in extremely preterm (EP) born neonates; however, consequences of LVCP beyond the first year of life are ...
    • Predicting physical activity in a national cohort of children born extremely preterm 

      Engan, Mette; Engeseth, Merete Salveson; Fevang, Silje Katrine Elgen; Vollsæter, Maria; Eide, Geir Egil; Røksund, Ola Drange; Halvorsen, Thomas; Clemm, Hege Havstad (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Objectives: To compare physical activity among school-aged children born extremely preterm or with extremely low birthweight (EP/ELBW) to term-born children, and to identify early predictors for physical inactivity in the ...
    • Reliability of maximum oxygen uptake in cardiopulmonary exercise testing with continuous laryngoscopy 

      Engan, Mette; Jansrud, Ida; Bekken, Marianne; Halvorsen, Thomas; Fretheim-Kelly, Zoe Louise; Vollsæter, Maria; Bovim, Lars Peder Vatshelle; Røksund, Ola Drange; Clemm, Hege Havstad (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Aims: A cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) is the gold standard to evaluate symptom-limiting exercise intolerance, while continuous laryngoscopy performed during exercise (CLE) is required to diagnose exercise-induced ...
    • Reliability of translaryngeal airway resistance measurements during maximal exercise 

      Fretheim-Kelly, Zoe; Engan, Mette; Clemm, Hege Synnøve Havstad; Andersen, Tiina Maarit; Heimdal, John-Helge; Strand, Eric; Halvorsen, Thomas; Røksund, Ola Drange; Vollsæter, Maria (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Objective: Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction is an important cause of exertional dyspnoea. The diagnosis rests on visual judgement of relative changes of the laryngeal inlet during continuous laryngoscopy exercise ...
    • Use of inhaled ipratropium bromide to improve exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction cannot be recommended 

      Muralitharan, Praveen; Carlsen, Petter; Hilland, Magnus; Delestre-Levai, Irisz; Vollsæter, Maria; Hufthammer, Karl Ove; Engan, Mette; Røksund, Ola Drange; Halvorsen, Thomas; Clemm, Hege Synnøve Havstad (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Introduction: Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) is a common cause of exertional breathing problems in young adults. Current management generally consists of breathing advice, speech therapy, inspiratory muscle ...
