PFT (SPIROMETRY)

Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) (Spirometry) is a diagnostic test that evaluate lung health by measuring airflow and volume, aiding in the diagnosis of respiratory conditions such as asthma and COPD. Spirometry is a vital diagnostic tool used in assessing lung function and respiratory health. During a spirometry test, a patient breathes into a specialized machine that measures various parameters like lung capacity, airflow, and lung function. It helps healthcare professionals diagnose conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other respiratory disorders. By analyzing the results, doctors can tailor treatment plans, monitor disease progression and offer guidance for managing respiratory conditions effectively, thereby improving patients’ lung health and overall quality of life.
