That is the correct spelling of "spirometry" (breathing measurement).
Spirometry is a diagnostic method for measuring gases and respiratory function. Incentive spirometry may be ordered to help patients practice and improve controlled breathing.
Spirometry is covered in medical sciences. Spirometry is a test of the lungs. It's done by putting a plug on the nose, directing all the air to go to the mouth. It measures lung function.
Noninvasive means not invasive. It means you don't get anything invading you or whatever is being looked at. For instance, a sonogram (the so-called ultrasound) is a noninvasive medical imaging procedure.
Yes. A spirometry can be normal but asthma still present so it is important to test for reversibility
Yes
no
a chest x-ray
Patients who are unable or unwilling to properly and consistently practice incentive spirometry as prescribed should not receive this form of treatment.
A mask interface is called noninvasive ventilation, while a tracheostomy tube is called invasive ventilation
Usually open-ended questions, questions which are not leading, pushy or dealing with personal topics, tend to be noninvasive. How are you? How have you been?
If you can do a noninvasive procedure versus an invasive procedure, the attending physician, if any good at all, will always go with the noninvasive technique. If ever a noninvasive procedure can be done, it will always out weigh the invasive procedure.
