Mr Lo Kan Ming – in appreciation for his contributions to the work of the respiratory societies
While majority of the members in the respiratory societies may not know Mr. Lo, he has made special contribution to the work of the respiratory societies. His dedication and wealth of experience in lung function testing made him the ideal person to assist us in the initiation of the Lung function project for Update reference values in adults in Hong Kong in 2000, conducted under the auspices of the three respiratory societies. Mr. Lo contributed his rich technical expertise towards standardisation of the procedures of lung function testing among the eight participating laboratories in the territory-wide study. He liaised with staff of the lung function laboratories to ensure we uniformly adhere to prevailing international recommendations for testing. In the process, “Ming Gor” has made many friends in the respiratory profession in Hong Kong, including doctors and nursing or technical staff, some of whom have kept up regular contact with him after his retirement.
May he Rest in Peace.
