Data are presented on the FEV1 and forced vital capacity (FVC) of elderly people living at home. These were derived from a survey of 418 persons over the age of 70 years and thus provide standards for the assessment of elderly persons. There was a decline in FEV1 and FVC cross sectionally with age and a continued adverse effect of smoking. A history of cough and phlegm was strongly related to impairment of lung function.
文中呈现了居家老年人的第一秒用力呼气容积(FEV1)和用力肺活量(FVC)的数据。这些数据源自一项针对418名70岁以上人群的调查,从而为评估老年人提供了标准。FEV1和FVC随年龄呈横断面下降,且吸烟存在持续的不良影响。咳嗽和咳痰史与肺功能损害密切相关。
