Granted
The Board granted an initial rating of 100 percent for asthma based on the Veteran's FEV-1 score of less than 40 percent.
The deciding factor: The persuasive weight of the evidence favored a finding that the Veteran's service-connected asthma warranted an initial rating of 100 percent, as his predicted FEV-1 score was recorded at 31 percent, which is less than 40 percent.
