I suggest, asthma, emphysema or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

What made the statements, please check my sources below.

I'm a programmer of pulmonary medicine. I hope you find this useful.

COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Asthma

I will try to find an explanation for this

EDIT
Spirometry (ie, measurement of respiratory) function is the most common respiratory tests (PFT), the measurement of lung function, particularly the measurement of the quantity (volume) and / or speed (flow) can inhale and exhale air. Spirometry is an important tool used to evaluate diseases such as asthma, cystic fibrosis and COPD.

Spirometry maneuvers are a slow vital capacity (SVC), forced vital capacity (FVC), tidal volume (TV) and the maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV). Measuring forced vital capacity maneuver is used most frequently, sometimes in conjunction with the slow vital capacity and / or tidal volume. A plethysmograph can be used to functional residual capacity (FRC Action)


Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a collective term for a group of respiratory diseases, by the obstruction or limitation. The most common cause is smoking, but the EPOC Calso by the exposure to other irritants in the airways, such as coal dust or solvents are caused. In some cases, the causes are not known (idiopathic COPD) or illness occur in May due to defects.

Asthma is a disease of the respiratory tract, including the narrowing of the airway inflammation and with an excess of mucus covered, often in response to one or more "triggers" such as exposure to an environmental stimulus (or allergen), cold air, exercise, or emotional stress. In children, the most common triggers are viral illnesses such as those that cause colds. [1] This airway narrowing causes symptoms such as wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness and coughing, which respond to bronchodilators. Between episodes, most patients feel well.

The disease is a chronic inflammatory disease of the respiratory tract or recurrent tract that helps, that a greater capacity to respond to various stimuli, characterized by bronchial hyperreactivity, inflammation, increased mucus production and intermittent obstruction of air. The symptoms of asthma, the approximatelyVary from mild to life threatening, can usually be controlled with a combination of drugs and environmental changes.
