Abstract: This study investigates lung function patterns and treatment strategies in obstructive respiratory conditions using spirometry as a diagnostic and monitoring tool (1). Conducted as a prospective observational study on 150 patients aged 10?90 years, the research evaluates key spirometric parameters-FEV1, FVC, and FEV1/FVC ratio-to identify conditions like asthma, COPD, and small airway obstruction. Findings reveal that reduced spirometric values correspond with obstructive lung dysfunctions, and commonly prescribed medications include fluticasone furoate and budesonide?formoterol combinations. Despite minor adverse effects, spirometry remains a safe and vital method for early detection and ongoing management. The study underscores the importance of integrating spirometry in routine clinical practice to enhance diagnostic accuracy and improve patient outcomes.
