Abstract
INTRODUCTION: This novel study aimed to establish spirometric reference values and prediction equations based on a sample of the adult Moroccan population, an endeavor that has not been attempted previously. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study involving healthy Moroccan adults, data was collected through a mobile spirometry setup. RESULTS: Our sample comprised 841 healthy adults (384 men and 457 women) aged 18-86 years who underwent spirometry. For both sexes, the Global Lung Function Initiative 2012 equations for Caucasians corresponded the best to the studied sample but were not perfectly compatible. CONCLUSION: The spirometric prediction equations established in this study for Moroccan adults aged 18-86 years best represent the Moroccan population. More extensive future studies are needed to enrich the database of reference values and prediction equations derived from our research.
