  • Title: Pulmonary function: do your older patients measure up?
    Author: Paré PD.
    Journal: Geriatrics; 1985 Nov; 40(11):93-8. PubMed ID: 4054635.
    Abstract:
    Low-cost, accurate, easy-to-use portable spirometry equipment can be set up in a small space in the physician's office. Measurements are taken and recorded in only a few minutes and can be used to compare with predicted values based on age, sex, and height. Generally, values less than 80% of the predicted values are abnormal.
