Brief summary
This is an observational study which aims to evaluate the possibility of using data from a capnography device to assess obstructive airway severity in both Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Asthma patients.
Detailed description
This is an observational study which aims to evaluate the possibility of using data from a capnography device to assess obstructive airway severity in both COPD and Asthma patients. The study will include adult asthma and COPD patients (age \>18). Patients will be enrolled on a continuous basis and will be monitored by capnograph and oximeter before and after lung function assessment and also during and after medical treatment.
