I had a clinic all day yesterday. Went through all the usual specialties. Long day as you all know!
I have a copy of my breathing test results and was wondering what some of the numbers mean. The first column is FVC, FEV1, MFEP, PEF, FEF25, FEF50, FEF75, FVC IN, MIP and MEP.
Second column at the top is Pred then Best and %(B/P).
From what I've seen here, it seems everyone looks at the percentage numbers column.
Are there any other numbers I should look more closely at?
Also, It seems most here are concerned with FVC, MIP and MEP.
FVC is 58%
MIP 35%
MEP 47%
Also, After a long wait, I had a Trilogy delivered, setup and programed this morning. I'm looking forward to using it tonight. I'm hoping I will be less sleepy all day!
Thanks in advance,
Marty
