Spirometry (Phephron Ka Test) is the gold-standard breathing test to measure how fast and how much air you can blow out. At IRC G-11 Markaz, Islamabad, spirometry is performed with clinical interpretation by Dr. Jehangir Khan & Dr. Muhammad Israr.

Spirometry Procedure - What Happens?

  1. You sit straight, nose clip applied, take deep breath in
  2. Blow out HARD and FAST into spirometer mouthpiece for at least 6 seconds
  3. Repeat 3 times to get best effort (ATS/ERS criteria)
  4. Bronchodilator (salbutamol) may be given and test repeated after 15 minutes to check reversibility
  5. Report generated same day with FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC

FEV1, FVC, Ratio - What They Mean

ParameterWhat It MeasuresNormal
FEV1Air you blow in 1st second>80% of predicted
FVCTotal air you can blow out>80% of predicted
FEV1/FVC RatioAirflow limitation>0.70 (or > LLN)
ReversibilityAsthma vs COPD differenceFEV1 increase ≥12% + 200ml after bronchodilator = reversible (asthma)

Predicted values based on age, height, gender, ethnicity using GLI equations. Interpretation by doctor, not just numbers.
