PFT Test at Home in Bangalore
Book a technician-guided pulmonary function test at home. A PFT measures airflow and lung volume and may be advised for asthma, COPD, persistent respiratory symptoms or follow-up monitoring.
Home visit, technician-guided spirometry, required test disposables and a digital report are included.
What does a PFT measure?
A pulmonary function test uses a portable spirometer to record how much air you can exhale and how quickly you can exhale it. Common measurements include:
- FVC: total air exhaled forcefully after a deep breath.
- FEV1: air exhaled during the first second.
- FEV1/FVC ratio: used by doctors when assessing airflow limitation.
- Flow-volume and volume-time curves: visual records of the breathing manoeuvre.
If your doctor requested pre- and post-bronchodilator testing, tell our team while booking so the requirement can be checked.
Who may be advised to have a PFT?
A doctor may recommend lung function testing for people with asthma, COPD or chronic bronchitis; recurring cough, wheeze, breathlessness or chest tightness; a history of smoking; respiratory symptoms after illness; occupational exposure to dust, fumes or chemicals; or a need for pre-operative or follow-up assessment.
