A computer program for interpretation of pulmonary function tests, including flow-volume loops, lung volumes, and diffusing capacity, is described. Comparisons of data obtained before and after administration of bronchodilators and comparison with previous tests are also available as part of the program. Computer interpretation of pulmonary function testing accelerates the reporting of test data and may have a role in education in the discipline of respiratory medicine and related fields.
本文描述了一种用于解读肺功能测试的计算机程序，该测试包括流量-容积环、肺容积和弥散能力。作为该程序的一部分，还可进行支气管扩张剂给药前后获得的数据比较以及与先前测试的比较。肺功能测试的计算机解读加快了测试数据的报告速度，并且可能在呼吸医学及相关领域的学科教育中发挥作用。
