Introduction: Spirometry, despite being the gold-standard diagnostic test for obstructive airway diseases, is underutilized in clinical practice. It is widely used to assess lung function and provide objective data for lung disease diagnosis and monitoring. Real-life conditions are less ideal because of comorbidities, age of the subjects, and a variety of airflow limitations.
