title: A practical approach to the interpretation of lung function testing in children.
abstract: Lung function testing is an increasingly important tool in the diagnosis and monitoring of lung disease in children. However, not all paediatricians will have had training in lung function testing. Here, a structured approach to the interpretation of lung function results is developed. This should help the clinician understand the results from their lung function laboratory.
