Pulmonary Function Testing (Spirometry)
Distinguishing cardiac from lung causes of breathlessness.
What is pulmonary function testing (spirometry)?
A simple, non-invasive breathing test that measures lung function to diagnose asthma, COPD, and other respiratory disorders, while helping distinguish cardiac causes of breathlessness from lung disease.
Signs to watch for
- Unexplained breathlessness
- Chronic cough or wheeze
- Known or suspected asthma or COPD
- Breathlessness that hasn't been fully explained by cardiac testing
How we approach lung function at Nabade
- 1Non-invasive spirometry breathing test
- 2Measurement of lung volumes and airflow
- 3Comparison against predicted normal values
- 4Correlation with cardiac findings where relevant
- 5Clear explanation of results and next steps
Why early care matters
Breathlessness can come from the heart, the lungs, or both. Pulmonary function testing helps identify the true cause early, so treatment is directed at the right problem from the start.
