Spirometry Reference Values Mismeasurement for Women
Manage episode 418398505 series 3381400

Dr. Philippe Haouzi, medical director of Cleveland Clinic’s Pulmonary Function Testing Lab, discusses the lack of clear evidence for this assumption and why it’s time to re-evaluate the inclusion of sex as a parameter in developing reference values for spirometry.
