Overview

Other diagnostic studies for respiratoer acidosis include Pulmonary function tests,which are neccessary for the diagnosis of the chronic obstructive lung disease.

Other Diagnostic Studies

• For the estimation of the severity of obstructive lung disease Pulmonary function test are required for the diagnosis and shows the following
  • FEV₁=Forced expiratory volume in 1 second
  • It is the most commonly used index of airflow obstruction
  • FVC= Forced vital capacity
    • The ratio of FEV_1.0 to forced vital capacity is reduced.
