Lung function test
Lung function evaluations evaluate the lungs’ capacity to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. An individual must breathe through a specialised machine. There are two distinct categories of pulmonary function tests:
Spirometer – This is a spirometer, a device used by physicians to evaluate lung function. It is the simplest method for assessing the functionality of the airways. The examination assists in determining
Existence of any respiratory disorder
To evaluate the lung’s capacity for absorbing, storing, and utilising air
To assess the efficacy of the treatment
Assess the severity of pulmonary disease
To determine whether the lung disease is restricting ventilation.
Air sacs facilitate the diffusion of oxygen from the interstitium into the circulation. The evaluations determine the capacity of lung air sacs to diffuse oxygen.
