Released today a consensus statement from the Taskforce for Lung Health: https://www.taskforceforlunghealth.org.uk/modern-service-framework-for-respiratory-campaign/ please read and share.

"Did you know more people die from respiratory conditions in the UK than anywhere else in Europe? This is a result of chronic under resourcing and prioritisation from the government, but we now have a chance to change this. As part of the Taskforce for Lung Health, we’re calling for a modern service framework for respiratory in England. This is essential to help deliver better care, earlier diagnosis, and fewer preventable deaths. With a coordinated, equitable plan, we can save lives, reduce pressure on the NHS and ensure everyone has the chance to breathe easier."

Did you get last week's Spirometry Quiz question right?

Q1: A patient performs spirometry, and the results show a decreased FEV1/FVC ratio with a decreased FEV1 but a normal FVC. Which of the following is most likely?
Answer: B. Obstructive lung disease

Explanation: Obstructive lung disease is characterised by a decreased FEV1/FVC ratio. The FVC may be preserved/normal but due to airway narrowing the air cannot be exhaled as quickly so the FEV1 is reduced

Each month the ARTP Spirometry Committee will be setting a new quiz question on the ARTP social media accounts. Check back next month to play again!
