What does the spirometry test do?

The test produces a recording of the patient's ventilation under conditions involving both normal and maximal effort. The recording, called a spirogram, shows the volume of air moved and the rate at which it travels into and out of the lungs.


What is spirometry limitations?

Spirometry has several limitations, including its dependence on patient effort and technique, which can lead to variability in results if not performed correctly. It may not accurately capture lung function in individuals with certain conditions, such as restrictive lung diseases, where lung volumes may not be fully assessed. Additionally, spirometry cannot diagnose all respiratory conditions, as it primarily measures airflow and does not provide information on gas exchange or lung mechanics. Lastly, factors like age, sex, height, and ethnicity can influence normal values, potentially leading to misinterpretation of results.
