I have just had a copd review at my new gp.

I wasn’t impressed with the nurse,had very limited information she could give me regarding my results.

Can anybody on here explain what 0.82L fev1 is in % please?

Cannot find what it means,and she didn’t have a clue

Thank you

Hi

If this is the actual result you need the predicted value for your age height and gender.with this the equation is.

0.82 divided by predicted, times 100 equals,your FEV1 as a percentage

If you don’t have your predicted, look at the following link.

Scroll to bottom to match your age weight and gender and use the value shown
