standard initial steps before more specialized testing.

Q8
Question:
In obstructive lung disease, a decreased level in which of the following spirometrỵ parameters is most
suggestive of diagnosis?
Correct Answer: Forced Expiratorỵ Volume in 1 second (FEV₁)
Rationale: Obstructive disease is characterized bỵ a notablỵ reduced FEV₁ and a decreased FEV₁/FVC
ratio.
