Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are lung tests. They show how well your lungs work. They’re noninvasive, which means that the doctor doesn’t cut you or put any tools inside your body.
 
A Pulmonary Function Test is finished in the Cardiopulmonary Department. Prior to testing, you'll be posed inquiries like your stature, weight, prescriptions, hack, smoking and work history. You will be approached to sit in an uncommon seat, confronting a mouthpiece. You'll breath all through this mouthpiece as the machine estimates your relaxing. Your primary care physician might arrange a few unique tests or breathing activities, which might incorporate a nebulizer treatment. All tests are finished with you sitting in the seat. You will get full directions before each test and training during the test. The tests take one to two hours. When testing is finished, the outcomes will be deciphered and sent to your primary care physician.
 
There are 3 types of pulmonary function tests performed at Jackson Hospital. They are: 
  • PFT Screen – Shows flow vs. volume by time without bronchodilator.
  • PFT Pre and Post – Pulmonary test without bronchodilator followed by another test after bronchodilator.
  • PFT Pre and Post with DLCO-DLCO (Diffusion Capacity) measures the amount of oxygen passing from the air sacs in the lungs into the blood.
