Pulmonary Function Test with Bronchodilator (BDR) near me in Thane

Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) with bronchodilator reversibility are a group of tests that measures the working capacity of your lungs. This includes breathing ability and ability of lungs to bring oxygen to the rest of your body. These tests are ordered in case of symptoms of lung problems. During the test, you will be asked to breathe into a device called a spirometer, which measures the amount and speed of air you can inhale and exhale. The test is performed before and after using a bronchodilator medication. This allows the doctor to see how your lungs respond to the medication and if there is any improvement in your breathing. This test helps doctors diagnose respiratory conditions, and monitor treatment progress for diseases like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and bronchitis. This test is a valuable tool in diagnosing and managing lung diseases, guiding treatment decisions, and tracking the progress of lung health.
