Asthma Peak Flow Diary
If you have been advised by the surgery to submit your asthma peak flow diary on a regular basis, please use this form.
How to use your peak flow meter
- Put the pointer back to the first line on the scale – this is usually 60
- Stand, or sit upright (choose what’s easiest for you and always do it that way)
- Take a deep breath
- Make sure your mouth makes a tight seal around the mouthpiece
- Blow as hard and fast as you can into the meter
- Write down your score (the number next to the pointer)
- Do this 3 times in a row so you get 3 scores – and use the highest of these scores to fill in your diary
