Resumo:Spirometry is the accepted method for COPD diagnosis, a disease with high social costs. For certain professions, especially the ones that involve physical strength, the risk of COPD can be evaluated trough spirometry. In this work,using a data collection, it was evaluated the type of disease (obstructive  and/or restrictive). The study shows that the forced expiratory volume in the 4th second should be valued instead of using the forced vital capacity, and a new indicator was introduced, which indicates the type of flow. https://doi.org/10.14195/1647-7723_24_12
