Spirometry
  1. Restrictive
    1. FEV1 reduced
      1. FVC reduced <80%
        1. Proportional reduction in both so FEV1:FVC ratio NORMAL
          1. lung volume is reduced - eg, fibrosing alveolitis, scoliosis
            1. Flow vol loop
            2. Obstructive
              1. FEV1 reduced <80%
                1. FVC normal or slightly reduced
                  1. FEV1:FVC ratio REDUCED <70%
                    1. diffuse airways narrowing: asthma, COPD, extensive bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis, lung tumours
                      1. Flow vol loop
                      2. Flow volume loops
                        1. Normal
