Bronchodilator Response Test

A Bronchodilator Response Test is a medical procedure used to assess how well your lungs respond to bronchodilator medications, which help open the airways. During the test, you breathe into a device that measures your lung function before and after taking the medication. This helps doctors determine if conditions like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are present. A significant improvement in lung function indicates that the airways are more reactive, which may guide treatment decisions and provide insights into the severity of your respiratory condition.
