Sadoul Lecture followed by a session of Assembly 9: How to get the best signal?

Sadoul Lecture
Chairs: B. G. Cooper (Birmingham, United Kingdom), T. Sigsgaard (Aarhus, Denmark)
Aims: The aim of this session is to highlight the importance of not only measuring spirometry correctly, but also to expose how interpreting the results not only has implications for the patients prognosis and interventions, but how this can have an enormous impact on the costs to public health if we get it wrong. There is a common perception that accurate spirometry and the use of lower limit of normal is a minor technical issue, when in fact it has enormous implications for the Respiratory Roadmap in the future.
