Correlation and Agreement of Handheld Spirometry with LaboratorySpirometry in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell TransplantRecipients

摘要

BACKGROUNDEarly detection of subclinical lung function decline may help identify allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients who are at increased risk for late non-infectious pulmonary complications including bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). We evaluated the use of handheld spirometry in this population.
