Validation of artificial intelligence spirometry diagnostic support software in primary care: a blinded diagnostic accuracy study

AI software achieved high sensitivity and specificity in identifying COPD using spirometry and basic demographic data and may support accurate diagnosis of COPD in primary care. AI software performed less well for other chronic respiratory disease categories.
