Duración: 60 minutos
Join us on World COPD Day – November 19th at 10:00 AM EST for a special live webinar featuring a one-on-one interview live from the 2025 ERS Congress with leading lung function expert Dr. Karl Sylvester. Together, we’ll break down the complexities of spirometry — from understanding global standards and predicted values to interpreting spirometry results in clinical practice.
Whether you’re new to pulmonary function testing or a seasoned clinician, this session will equip you with practical insights to enhance your understanding and application of spirometry in patient care.
Key Takeaways:
- Gain clarity on spirometry standards and the key updates from ATS/ERS 2005 vs. 2019 guidelines.
- Understand the differences between predicted sets and how they impact test interpretation.
- Learn how to apply interpretation standards for more accurate clinical decisions.
