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.
