What is Pulmonary Function Test Overview about?
A pulmonary function test measures lung function by having the patient breathe in and out through a mouthpiece. The test involves wearing a nose clip and performing various breathing maneuvers like inhaling and exhaling deeply. Spirometry is used to measure airflow and lung volume. Patients may feel temporary shortness of breath during forced breathing. The test helps diagnose lung diseases like asthma and emphysema, and can assess the effects of medications or occupational exposures on lung function.
