This report presents data from objective measurement of lung function in adults, measured by portable spirometers, using data from the 2008- 2011 Scottish Health Surveys. Three parameters of lung function are reported: forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and the ratio of these measurements (FEV1/FVC).
