Note
The volume-time curve (Fig. 3-16) does not display the

Bronchodilation ( Post -Tests)
The Post test is usually performed to determine the patient's response to
bronchodilating asthma medication. This is done by administering a bron-
chodilator to the patient after he or she has performed a spirometry test
(
Pre -Test). Approximately 10 to 20 minutes after the medication (when
bronchodilator shows effect, refer to medication labelling) a second spirom-
etry test is performed. After the test the
Pre and Post results are compared.
Post tests can only be added to previous tests performed on the same day.
