Spirometry – recommended by NICE for determination of all asthmatics

NICE guideline [NG80] Published date: November 2017

Recommendation for Lung function tests

Spirometry

Offer spirometry to adults, young people and children aged 5 and over if a diagnosis of asthma is being considered. Regard a forced expiratory volume in 1 second/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) ratio of less than 70% (or below the lower limit of normal if this value is available) as a positive test for obstructive airway disease (obstructive spirometry).
