Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether wheeze as assessed by a commercially available wheeze monitor is comparable to lung function as measured during a spirometry test. The main questions it aims to answer are whether measures of airflow obstruction (FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF) correlate with wheeze score (Tw/Ttot%).

Participants consenting to take part will undergo wheeze measurement prior to and during a spirometry test and will be asked to complete a series of symptom questionnaires.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: All participants

Participants will undergo wheeze monitoring during tidal breathing prior to spirometry and during a spirometry test.

Device: Wheeze measurement
Acoustic breath sounds will be measured during tidal breathing prior to spirometry and during a spirometry attempt.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Wheeze score (Tw/Ttot%) [Day 1]

    The average proportion of each breath that contained wheeze during a 30 second breath sound recording.

  2. FEV1/FVC [Day 1]

    the ratio between forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC)

  3. FEV1 [Day 1]
