What Does FEF Stand For?
FEF stands for Forced Expiratory Flow Lung Function
FEF, or Forced Expiratory Flow Lung Function, refers to a set of measurements that evaluate the rate of airflow during forced expiration in individuals. This assessment is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring respiratory conditions, providing insights into lung function, and determining the presence of obstructive or restrictive airway diseases. FEF values, often expressed at various points of the forced expiratory maneuver, aid healthcare professionals in making informed decisions regarding patient care and treatment strategies.
