14.4 Spirometer Test
Administration of spirometry must be performed by a health care professional present with the
patient. Spirometry tests are not to be administered by a patient. The HCP performing the
spirometry test should have had prior training in spirometric measurements.
A device-generated assessment cannot replace sound medical judgement by a trained
professional. Therefore, a physician should always review the spirometry results. To minimize
the chance of a misdiagnosis, it is the
physician’s responsibility to assure that spirometry tests
are properly administered, evaluated, and interpreted.
Use the Spirometer only if it passes the Spirometer Calibration Check. See section 21.5
Spirometer Calibration Check. Otherwise, measurements could be inaccurate and
could result in a misdiagnosis.
