Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Outcome measures from spirometry tests (1)

    The researchers will use the absolute values for FEV1 and FVC, coupled with the demographic data, to calculate FEV1/FVC, percent predicted and z-scores using a batch calculator from the GLI website. The team will record how many patients achieved technically acceptable tests, using the ATS A-F standards (9), and how many failed.

    Within two weeks

  • Outcome measures from spirometry tests (2)

    The team will record how many patients achieved technically acceptable tests, using the ATS A-F standards (9), and how many failed.

    Within two weeks

  • Length of each standard test

    Researchers will record how long each standard test took to carry out.

    Within two weeks
