What it is done for

Procedure records that recorded a reason; the rest recorded none.

Age when it is performed

Spirometry: median 48 across all procedures: median 38

Age when it is performed Bar chart. Age when it is performed. 306 patients in all; the largest group is 40 to 49 with 72; Spirometry: median 48 years; across all procedures: median 38 years. 0 20 40 60 10 to 19: 1 patient 20 to 29: 44 patients 30 to 39: 51 patients 40 to 49: 72 patients 50 to 59: 67 patients 60 to 69: 36 patients 70 to 79: 23 patients 80 to 89: 6 patients 90 and over: 6 patients 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 years
Half of these patients were 48 or older. Across all procedures, half were 38 or older. The 40 to 49 hold the most, 72 patients. A distribution that begins abruptly is a screening protocol's start age, not an age at which the need appears.

How often one person has it

How often one person has it Bar chart. How often one person has it. 5 categories; the largest is 11 to 50 with 146 patients. once: 7 patients once 7 2 to 3 times: 19 patients 2 to 3 times 19 4 to 10: 127 patients 4 to 10 127 11 to 50: 146 patients 11 to 50 146 more than 50: 7 patients more than 50 7
11 to 50, more than any other. 306 patients in all. A screening some people repeat scores of times shares this page with the person who had it once, so the bins climb by powers.
