PFT Reader - Algorithmic Approach to Pulmonary Function Test

How to copy PFT data

Click on the first row and first column ("Variable") and drag across to the last column ("%Pred-Pre"). This will select all of the rows for the selected columns. Then use Ctrl+C to copy the data.

Caveats
  • The Effort and Flow Volume Loop are not being read. You have to use the drop down to select the right one.
  • This reader does not read methacholine challenge test or supine and upright spirometry.
Updates
  • 7/22/2023: added simple and complex restriction. Spirometry now shows mix of restriction and obstruction and quantifies restriction. Abnormal effort and flow loop now appear in conclusion. Clarified Z scores in the statements.

EFFORT:

SPIROMETRY:
