A window will open that contains the graphical representation of the Average

NOTE: The Liverpool Nomogram is valid for male and female adult
patients only. Depending on the sex of the patient, the resulting Nomogram
window will appear for either the male or female averages.
From here, compare the average and maximum flow rates for the specific test.
