: Spirometry in the occupational health setting plays a critical role in the primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention of workplace-related lung disease. Recognizing the central role of spirometry in workplace respiratory programs, the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ACOEM) developed three spirometry position statements in the past two decades, which summarized advances of particular relevance to occupational health practice. However, since these statements were published, there have been important developments in federal regulations and in official American Thoracic Society recommendations which affect occupational spirometry testing. This 2020 ACOEM guidance statement incorporates these spirometry testing changes into its recommendations to provide current information for all users of spirometry test results, from those who perform or supervise testing to those who only interpret or review results.
在职业健康环境中，肺量测定在与工作相关的肺部疾病的初级、二级和三级预防中发挥着至关重要的作用。美国职业与环境卫生医学院（ACOEM）认识到肺量测定在工作场所呼吸计划中的核心作用，在过去二十年中制定了三项肺量测定立场声明，总结了与职业健康实践特别相关的进展。然而，自这些声明发布以来，联邦法规和美国胸科学会的官方建议都有了重要的发展，这些发展影响了职业肺量测定测试。这份 2020 年的 ACOEM 指南声明将这些肺量测定测试的变化纳入其建议中，为所有使用肺量测定测试结果的人提供当前信息，从进行或监督测试的人到仅解释或审查结果的人。
