Optimal spirometry thresholds for the prediction of chronic airflow obstruction: a multinational longitudinal study
Spirometry is better than respiratory symptoms at predicting chronic airflow obstruction incidence. A pre-bronchodilator FEV<sub>1</sub>/FVC <9th/10th percentiles, particularly among current smokers, could suggest early airflow obstruction or pre-COPD.
