Patient Data Screen
Each of the data fields on this screen can be accessed by clicking in it with the mouse or
pressing the tab key. Although some of this information is not essential for Spirometry, it
is important to complete each of these fields as accurately as possible. The accuracy of,
Date of Birth, Sex, Height, and Race, is essential since this data is used by the
Spirometer interpretive analysis program to produce predicted measurements and
preliminary diagnostic statements. All four digits of the year must be entered for the
Date of Birth. The Height is located on the Vital Signs tab.
The following table provides a brief description of the function for each field. Fields that
play a diagnostic role in the interpretive program are noted.
