Résumé
Little is known about lung function in Inuit. The aim of this study was to describe lung function and the prevalence of obstructive and restrictive lung disease among Inuit in Greenland. During the 2017-2019 Health Survey, spirometry, with forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV Based on validated spirometries, 795/2084 persons were included in this cross-sectional, descriptive study. Of those, 54.6% were current- and 27.7% former smokers. In Inuit, normal lung function was higher than predicted GLI (FEV This study indicates that Inuit has higher absolute lung function values than standard GLI, despite the large proportion of smokers, which indicate a need for Inuit reference values in the daily clinical praxis. The high prevalence of obstructive lung function and rapid decline in lung function indicates the need for fucus on health issues that may affect lung health in Greenland.

Conclusion
UNASSIGNED
This study indicates that Inuit has higher absolute lung function values than standard GLI, despite the large proportion of smokers, which indicate a need for Inuit reference values in the daily clinical praxis. The high prevalence of obstructive lung function and rapid decline in lung function indicates the need for fucus on health issues that may affect lung health in Greenland.
