PFT

Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs) are a series of tests that measure how well your lungs are working. They assess the amount of air you can breathe in and out, how quickly you can do so, and how effectively your lungs transfer oxygen into your blood. PFTs help doctors diagnose, monitor, and manage lung conditions such as asthma, COPD, or fibrosis. The tests typically involve breathing into a machine that records your lung volume and airflow, providing valuable information about your respiratory health and guiding appropriate treatment.
