When two manoeuvres fail either of the consistency checks, then the
best individual results of the two are saved (FEV1, FEV6, and PEF
individually).
When any of the above messages appear, instruct the patient on
how to improve their manoeuvre and demonstrate the correct
manoeuvre yourself.
NLHEP QC Grades

criteria:
QC Grade
at least two acceptable manoeuvres, with the
A
largest two FEV1's matching better than 100mL and
the largest two FEV6's matching better than 100mL
at least two acceptable manoeuvres, with the
B
largest two FEV1's matching better than 150mL
at least two acceptable manoeuvres, with the
C
largest two FEV1's matching between 200ml and
150mL
only one acceptable manoeuvre or two with the
D
largest two FEV1's matching less than 200mL
No acceptable manoeuvres

NLHEP Interpretation
The interpretation is performed on the best spirometry results and is
based upon the predicted values for the forced expiratory ratio,
FEV1/FEV6, and FEV1. If airways obstruction is detected the level of
severity is reported in accordance with the NLHEP guidelines.
