This study aims to compare a new ultrasonic handheld spirometer with the standard hospital spirometer used in lung function testing. We want to find out whether the ultrasonic device can measure breathing strength and lung capacity as accurately and reliably as the traditional machine.
Adults with chronic respiratory diseases-including COPD, asthma, bronchiectasis, and interstitial lung disease-will participate. Each participant will perform lung function tests using both devices in a randomized order. The results from the two methods will then be compared to see how closely they match.
The goal of this study is to determine whether the ultrasonic spirometer can be used as a convenient alternative tool for lung function monitoring in clinics, community settings, or at home.
