3
Perform at least 3 maneuvers, but no more than 8, as this would
tire the patient.
If 3 or more maneuvers have been performed and the FVC
and/or FEV
1
parameters blink on and off, this indicates that the
repeatability criteria has been fulfilled for one or both
parameters, according to the ATS/ERS criteria. This criteria
indicates that the two best FVC or FEV
1
values do not differ by
more than 150 ml if FVC is more than 1 liter or more than
100 ml if FVC is less than or equal to one liter.
