If the template has a separate documentation page (usually called "Template:template name/doc"), add [[Category:Respiratory system disease and disorder templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Respiratory system disease and disorder templates]]</noinclude>
The four components of a SOAP note are Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan. [1] [2] [8] The length and focus of each component of a SOAP note vary depending on the specialty; for instance, a surgical SOAP note is likely to be much briefer than a medical SOAP note, and will focus on issues that relate to post-surgical status.
Pulmonary function testing (PFT) is a complete evaluation of the respiratory system including patient history, physical examinations, and tests of pulmonary function. The primary purpose of pulmonary function testing is to identify the severity of pulmonary impairment. [ 1 ]
TLC: Total lung capacity: the volume in the lungs at maximal inflation, the sum of VC and RV. TV: Tidal volume: that volume of air moved into or out of the lungs in 1 breath (TV indicates a subdivision of the lung; when tidal volume is precisely measured, as in gas exchange calculation, the symbol TV or V T is used.)
Pulmonary vein isolation PVOD: Pulmonary venoocclusive disease: PVR: pulmonary vascular resistance Postvoid residual urine volume PVS: perivascular space persistent vegetative state pulmonary valve stenosis Plummer–Vinson syndrome: PVT: Paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia: PWD: Pink, warm, and dry (skin assessment) PWP: pulmonary wedge ...

Integrated pulmonary index (IPI) is a patient pulmonary index which uses information from capnography and pulse oximetry to provide a single value that describes the patient's respiratory status. IPI is used by clinicians to quickly assess the patient's respiratory status to determine the need for additional clinical assessment or intervention.
The highest of three readings is used as the recorded value of the Peak Expiratory Flow Rate. It may be plotted out on graph paper charts together with a record of symptoms or using peak flow charting software. This allows patients to self-monitor and pass information back to their doctor or nurse.
