Summary

Spirometry is the gold-standard tool for diagnosing Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). However, its implementation in primary care is often limited by a shortage of qualified technicians and inconsistent testing quality. This study will use Augmented Reality (AR) glasses to provide real-time interaction and guidance to participants during spirometry. It will be designed as a two-phase study to evaluate the technical validity and clinical effectiveness of AR-assisted spirometry (AR-SPIRO) system.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

AR-Assisted Spirometry Guidance System

An innovative digital health intervention integrating a portable spirometer (PF910), a mobile terminal (iPad) for real-time flow data processing via Bluetooth, and AR glasses (XREAL One). The system provides synchronized visual-auditory feedback and voice interactive prompts based on real-time expiratory flow data. Participants perform forced maneuvers following AR instructions autonomously while a technician monitors for safety without providing verbal or gestural coaching.

OTHER

Routine Technician-led Spirometry Guidance

Spirometry performed using the same PF910 spirometer model but without AR assistance. Guidance is provided entirely by a technician through standardized verbal and gestures coaching, strictly adhering to routine clinical practice and national spirometry standardization protocols. All technicians at primary care sites receive unified training on COPD guidelines and standardization protocols prior to study initiation.
