While conventional spirometry is associated with strenuous "forced" maximal respiratory maneuvers and infection control implications, oscillometry not these issues. However, portability, convenience of use, interpretation remain common limitations to both techniques. This study tested the concordance agreement between resistance measurements obtained from handheld portable REOM device (Reo-f, Reo-s) those (R19, R5) in PFT-confirmed "mild" (GOLD 1) "very severe" 4) COPD. Unadjusted adjusted (Spearman correlation) (Bland-Altman tests) served as co-primary outcomes. Discrimination GOLD 1 4 COPD (Wilcoxon rank sum test, Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier) patient user experience (System Utility Scale (SUS), Participant Satisfaction Survey (PSS)) secondary In 17 participants n = 9, 8), R5-Reo-s (0.95 [0.81, 0.98]) R19-Reo-f (0.93 [0.79, 0.99]) correlations were very strong, was (mean differences: -0.07, 0.08, respectively). Statistically significant between-group differences observed for all four parameters.

These results support capacity a novel, complementary diagnostic
