Increased exhaled nitric oxide in wind and brass musiciansPlaying a wind or brass (W/B) instrument is considered a strenuous activity for the respiratory system.
We’ve heard from families that trustworthy information about preterm-associated lung disease is difficult to find. In response, we’ve created resources to empower families with the knowledge they need to manage these challenges.
