Spirometry Testing

Spirometry Testing is a measurement of lung volume and how well the air spaces in the lungs transfer oxygen to the blood(diffusion capacity).

Results of this test can help the doctor determine whether the patient suffers from obstructive or restrictive lung disease so they can decide on appropriate management.

Results are compared to the normal ranges for a healthy person of the same age sex,height and race. The most important thing is to determine whether the pattern of respiratory disease is either obstructive (over-inflation) or restrictive(difficulty expand the lungs). The doctor can then get an idea of specific underlying disease.
