Hi Mark
I find it quite a useful incentive to get people to think about smoking cessation, as often in the early days their spirometry results demonstrate normal lung function. It can be helpful to show them what is happening in the smaller airways though.

Thanks Fiona,

Hi Mark
My understanding is that this relates to the smaller airways and is often reduced in smokers when the other results are within normal parameters.
Kind regards
Fiona

Morning Everyone,
I wonder if you knowledgeable people could tell me how relevant/important FEF25-75 L/s is when interpreting lung function results?
I would be grateful for your opinions and views on this,
Kind regards,
Mark.
