Fully booked
Registration for this session is additional to the congress registration fee and is: €99 standard and €110 on site.
Aims : to present how to interpret spirometry tests; to be able (1) to differentiate between poor technique and technical errors and abnormal spirometry by evaluating patterns in flow volume and volume time curves; and (2) to recognise abnormal from normal spirometry when interpreting curves and results tables by comparing the measured values with the reference values.
