Spirometry Simplified returns: Brasov 2025

Building on the strong success of the first run during the IPCRG World Conference in Athens earlier this year, we are delighted to announce the second run of the Spirometry Simplified masterclass! This time, the Masterclass will be held in Brașov, following the IPCRG Scientific Meeting. We are now inviting demonstrations of interest for this second edition. To apply, delegates must register for the Scientific Meeting.

Some testimonials from the first edition:

  • “All the modules included pertinent information, presented in a simple and understandable way. It's a spirometry course made by and directed to family physicians, and that can be felt by the participants.”
  • “Passionate instructors, detailed but simple explanations.”
  • “This course will help in improving the quality of performing the spirometry and make it more standardised to interpret. Interpretation and diagnosis will improve.“

Designed for primary care professionals, the course offers an engaging combination of flexible online learning and practical, hands-on experience. It includes four online modules (8 hours), a 4-hour in-person Masterclass, and a Portfolio with mentoring, all certified by IPCRG. Feedback from the first edition was overwhelmingly positive, with 100% of participants saying they would recommend the course after completing the online modules. With global expert faculty and instruction in English, the course equips clinicians to improve spirometry quality and interpretation, enhancing patient care.
