Precision and accuracy of FEV1 measurements from the Vitalograph copd-6 mini-spirometer in a healthy Ugandan population.

<h4>Objective</h4>Evaluate the accuracy and precision of the copd-6 mini-spirometer for FEV1 in a rural Ugandan population.<h4>Methods</h4>In a cross-sectional study, 171 smallholder farmers performed spirometry with copd-6, and a diagnostic-quality spirometer.<h4>Resul...
