Understanding Pulmonary Function Tests: A Comprehensive Overview

Abstract

Paulina Santos*

Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs) are a group of diagnostic procedures that evaluate the function of the respiratory system, providing valuable insights into lung health. These tests are crucial in diagnosing and monitoring various respiratory conditions, helping healthcare professionals tailor treatment plans and improve patient outcomes. Pulmonary Function Tests are a cornerstone in the diagnosis and management of respiratory disorders. While each test provides specific information, their collective results, along with clinical history and examination, offer a comprehensive view of lung function. Interpreting PFTs requires expertise, typically from respiratory therapists or pulmonologists, ensuring accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment plans for individuals with respiratory conditions.
