Getting issue details...STATUSRespiratory assessments may be measured in studies on tobacco products to evaluate impact on respiratory function. Spirometry is a test that measures how an individual inhales or exhales volumes of air as a function of time, and is a test of general respiratory health.
The Respiratory System Findings (RE)) domain is based on the Findings Observation class. The RE is a body system-based morphology/physiology domain. This findings domain is used to represent physiological and morphological findings related to the respiratory system, including the organs that are involved in breathing such as the nose, throat, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs.
Example
In this example, spirometry was used to evaluate lung function. This shows results from several spirometry tests using either a spirometer or a peak flow meter where only the best result is available. The spirometry was assessed with and without bronchodilator use (represented in RECAT). Only select variables are shown.
Rows 1-2, 6-7:
Show the data in original units of measure in REORRES for the best result for spirometry tests with the predicted values in REORREF.
Rows 3-4, 8-9:
Show the data in original units of measure in REORRES of percent predicted tests as output by the spirometer device. REORREF is null as there are no reference results for percent predicted tests.
Rows 5, 10:
Show the data in original units of measure in REORRES for the peak flow test with the predicted values in REORREF.
