Pulmonary Function Testing Unit in Thane

Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs) are needed for the following reasons:

• Diagnosis: They help doctors diagnose various lung conditions, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary fibrosis.
• Assessment: PFTs are used to monitor the progression of lung diseases and assess the effectiveness of treatment.
• Pre-Surgery Evaluation: They can be performed before surgery to ensure that your lungs can handle the stress of anaesthesia and surgery.
• Screening: PFTs are sometimes used as part of employment screenings for jobs that involve exposure to respiratory hazards.

Pulmonary Function Tests offer several benefits:

• Early Detection: They can detect lung problems at an early stage, enabling timely treatment.
• Treatment Planning: PFT results guide doctors in developing a personalised treatment plan.
• Monitoring Progress: They allow for tracking changes in lung function over time.
• Risk Assessment: PFTs help assess the risk of complications during surgery or other medical procedures.

Pulmonary Function Tests are valuable tools in maintaining and improving respiratory health. They are non-invasive and provide essential information to diagnose, manage, and prevent lung conditions. If recommended by a healthcare professional, consider getting a PFT to assess your lung function.
