Abstract

The aim of the work. To present the innovations after the last revision of spirometry standards jointly adopted by the American Thoracic Society and the European Respiratory Society this year.

Materials and Methods. The modern ideas concerning the methodology of performing spirometry, quality control and analysis of its results were analyzed.

Results and Discussion. In particular, an updated list of relative contraindications, the list of activities that patients should avoid before testing, modern approach to withholding times for bronchodilators before bronchodilator responsiveness testing, new spirometry quality assessment system are presented, new requirements for clinical spirometers are given etc. English-language abbreviations for the names of spirometric parameters are used in the main text of the article. At the same time, given the possibility of using several “working” languages in modern spirometers, the correspondence of both full and short names in Ukrainian and English is given.

Conclusions. Compliance with the recommendations of ATS/ERS, 2019 should ensure that the performing spirometry procedure and the interpretation of its results are consistent at the proper level.
