Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Outcome measures from spirometry tests (1) [Within two weeks]
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.
- Outcome measures from spirometry tests (2) [Within two weeks]
The team will record how many patients achieved technically acceptable tests, using the ATS A-F standards (9), and how many failed.
- Length of each standard test [Within two weeks]
Researchers will record how long each standard test took to carry out.
