Pulmonary Function Test

Spirometry is a method of assessing lung function by measuring the volume of air that the patient can expel from lungs after a maximal inspiration.

Spirometry has many other applications in assessing and managing respiratory disease. These include measuring the presence and severity of restrictive lung defects, screening of the workforce in hazardous occupational environments, pre-employment screening for certain occupations, and assessing fitness to dive. Some believe it may be useful as a motivating tool to help smokers to quit
