PFT in Delhi
Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) / Spirometry at Classic Diagnostics — measures lung volume and airflow to diagnose asthma, COPD and other respiratory conditions.
What is a PFT?
PFT (also called Spirometry or Lung Function Test) measures how much air your lungs can hold and how quickly you can move air in and out. It is the key diagnostic test for asthma, COPD, restrictive lung disease, and is used to assess fitness before surgery or for occupational health screening.
When is a PFT recommended?
Chronic cough, breathlessness, or wheezing · suspected asthma or COPD · before major surgery · occupational health surveillance · monitoring of known lung disease · evaluation of smokers and ex-smokers · pre/post bronchodilator response assessment.
How the test is performed
You breathe into a mouthpiece connected to a spirometer through several breathing maneuvers — quiet breathing, then forceful inhalation and exhalation. The technician will coach you. The test takes 15–30 minutes. Bronchodilator response testing may add another 30 minutes.
