Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Spirometry includes the tests of pulmonary mechanics, the measurements of forced vital capacity, FEV1, several FEF values, forced inspiratory flow (FIF) rates, and the MVV.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Possible complications include pneumothorax, syncope, chest pain, paroxysmal coughing, and bronchospasm associated with exercise-induced asthma. Hemoptysis (cough up bloody sputum) is not a side effect of spirometry.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
