Abstract
Spirometry is a very useful test in paediatric clinical practice. Nevertheless, to avoid making mistakes, it is important to keep in mind its role and what can be measured and how. “On which patients should spirometry be performed? What does the clinician want to rule out? Is the result reliable? What should be avoided?”. So, by answering these questions, it is possible to get the best out of this resource and interpret the results critically. For this purpose, this article is addressed to ‘non-experts’, it discusses the main points and provides practical ‘tricks’ through most common clinical cases.
