Miscellaneous: Spirometry Reference Value Equations, Interpretation Modes, Measurements
The reference values by W
ANNE are height and gender-related and are
defined for patients aged 6 to 17 years.
Note
Age range from 6 to 17 years.
For patients younger than 6 years, the age is set to 6.
A range for height is not defined.
The equation defines the following reference values: MEF50, PEF, FVC,
FEV1, FEV1/FVC, VC (same as FIVC).
Brazil
The Brazil equation is based on the reference values by PEREIRA and
M
ALLOZI.
The reference values by P
EREIRA were published 1992 (Jornal de
Pneumologia 1992; 18:10-22).
The reference values are height and gender-related and are defined for
men aged 25 to 78 years and women aged 20 to 78 years.
Note
Age range 25 to 78 years for men and 20 to 78 years for women.
For patients older than the upper limit, the upper limit will be
used.
A range for height is not defined.
The equation defines the following reference values: PEF, FVC, FEV1,
FEV1/FVC, MMEF.
The reference values by M
ALLOZI were published 1995 (Tese, Doutorado,
Escola Paulista de Medicina, 1995; 116p.).
The reference values are height and gender-related and are defined for
men aged 6 to 24 years and women aged 6 to 19 years.
Note
Age range 6 to 24 years for men and 6 to 19 years for women.
For patients younger than the lower limit, the lower limit will be
used.
A range for height is not defined.
The equation defines the following reference values: PEF, FVC, FEV1,
FEV1/FVC, MMEF.
