This book is intended to help in the use of spirometry. The book is divided in two parts. The first part deals with general aspects of the spirometry technique, and contains information and descriptions intending to provide the reader a general idea of the technique. The second part is dedicated to test interpretation, and is intended to be a guide in the process of understanding the significance of the numeric results. Hopefully, the book may help to overcome barriers preventing a more widespread use of spirometry.
