Abstract
A pulmonary function measurement device, a pulmonary function measurement method, and a pulmonary function measurement program are disclosed. The pulmonary function measurement device for measuring data for evaluating a pulmonary function includes a sound output unit configured to be fixed to a body surface on one of front and rear sides of a lung, and outputs a sound toward the lung; a sound detection unit configured to be fixed to a body surface on one of the front and rear sides of the lung different from the side on which the sound output unit is to be fixed, and detects the sound from the sound output unit; a measurement unit configured to calculate a transmission time from when the sound output unit outputs the sound to when the sound detection unit detects the sound; and a variation calculation configured to calculate the amount of variation in the transmission time.
