Spirometriewerten
Spirometriewerten, also known as spirometry results, are measurements obtained from a spirometer, a device used to assess lung function. These values are crucial in diagnosing and monitoring respiratory conditions. The most commonly reported values include:
- Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1): This measures the volume of air that can be forcibly
- Forced Vital Capacity (FVC): This measures the total volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled
- Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF): This measures the maximum flow rate during forced expiration. It is often
- FEV1/FVC Ratio: This ratio compares the FEV1 to the FVC. A low ratio (less than 0.7) is
Spirometriewerten are typically expressed as a percentage of the predicted normal value, which is based on
