Among individuals with preserved ratio impaired spirometry, having interstitial lung abnormalities is associated with an ...

New GOLD guidelines recommend using pre-bronchodilator spirometry to rule out COPD and post-bronchodilator measurements to ...

Spirometry assesses three dimensions of lung function: forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV 1), or how much air someone can exhale in one second after inhaling as deeply as possible ...

At enrollment, PRISm was defined as post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) less than 80% predicted and a ratio of FEV1 to forced vital capacity (FVC) of at least 0.7. Normal ...

Comorbid lung function impairment was associated with increased risks for cardiovascular disease and mortality in type 2 diabetes.

Interventions and outcome Report of spirometry findings, including forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and vital capacity (VC), undertaken as part of a systematic process, to optimise ...

Expiratory reserve volume is the maximum amount ... These volumes can be seen in this spirometry trace. During exercise, tidal volume increases as the depth of breathing increases and the rate ...
