The two topics, namely \u201cHow can office spirometry help your practice?\u201d and \u201cOffice Spirometry: equipment and practice\u201d were delivered by Drs. Arthur Lau, Maureen Wong, Johnny Chan, Wai-kei Lam, Wilson Yee and Veronica Chan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, several public lectures had also been delivered in the year 2010.

Respiratory diseases have been a common and important cause of morbidity and mortality. However, as they frequently co-exist with the other medical conditions, attention and resources have frequently been drawn to the other more eye-catching health issues, leaving the lung problems outside the media and political spotlight. This phenomenon is surprisingly rather universal around the globe, both in the developed and developing countries. Governments and policy makers should strike the balance when planning healthcare services across the country\/nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forum of International Respiratory Societies (FIRS), comprising ATS, ACCP, APSR, ALAT (Latin America), ERS, IUATLD, and PATS (Africa), decided earlier in 2009 to declare 2010 being \u201cYear of the Lung\u201d. The aims are to raise awareness about lung health and lung diseases among the public, initiate actions in communities worldwide, and advocate for resources to advance lung health and fight lung disease, including support for research and research training programs, clinical and clinical training programs, and public health programs worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The local Respiratory circle is obliged to put these objectives into action. We are already in the move, targets and issues would include media events and press releases, open essay competition, talks, special sessions in ASM\/ARS, collaborations in exhibitions, audio-visual aids production, membership promotion, pamphlets and education material publications, Spirometry Day and COPD Day\u2026 We need more inputs, ideas, manpower, effort, expertise, commitment\u2026to make these \u201cdreams\u201d comes true. Those events\/issues confirmed and scheduled will be announced in due course, but we urge to have your input to booster the engine. Please feel free to send your idea(s) or whatever you think useful to us (Dr CY Tam or Dr Maureen Wong). You are our driving forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
