| Concept | Peak expiratory flow result |
| Description | The peak expiratory flow, measured using a mechanical peak expiratory flow (PEF) meter. |
| Use | Use to record the peak expiratory flow, measured using a mechanical peak expiratory flow (PEF) meter. This archetype is intended to be used for oral peak expiratory flow. It can be specialised for nasal peak expiratory flow (PNEF). |
| Misuse | Not to be used to record peak expiratory flow using a spirometer. Use the OBSERVATION.spirometry archetype for this purpose. Not to be used to record peak nasal expiratory flow (PNEF). Use a specialisation of this archetype for this purpose. Not to be used to record peak inspiratory flow. Use the OBSERVATION.pifr_result archetype for this purpose. |
| Purpose | To record the peak expiratory, measured using a mechanical peak expiratory flow (PEF) meter. |
