Pulmonary Function

The lungs and breathing are examined in a pulmonary function test. A tube is inserted into the patient’s mouth to measure breathing as the lungs work harder during physical activity. The test evaluates the amount of oxygen in your blood and how much air the lungs can contain as well as how quickly they can be discharged. PFT measures lung size, volume, airflow, and gas exchange.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    The purpose of a pulmonary function test is to examine how the lungs operate in the body of a patient. This helps to detect any lung disease or problem that the patient is experiencing or may experience in the future if it is not addressed. This determines how well you can breathe and how efficiently your lungs provide oxygen to your heart. A pulmonary function test can also be used to determine how much air you can hold in your lungs before blowing it out. PFT allows you to check your breathing rate, oxygen saturation, and capacity. It is one of the most effective tests for lung function that is performed efficiently and affordably at Mydiagnocenter.
