Spirometry. Spirometry will be performed as noted in the Schedule of Events and in accordance with the current American Thoracic Society recommendations for the performance and interpretation of tests. Two puffs of albuterol or levalbuterol (Xopenex) will be administered 15 minutes to 2 hours prior to spirometry during all study visits. Subjects that have already self-administered albuterol or levalbuterol (Xopenex) within 2 hours prior to spirometry do not need to re-administer; however those that have taken a long-acting bronchodilator (e.g., salmeterol, formoterol as contained in Advair®, Symbicort®, or similar medications) would be required to administer albuterol or levalbuterol (Xopenex) 15 minutes to 2 hours prior to spirometry at the visit. Detailed instructions on the order of procedures will be provided in supplemental study materials.
