But what is it, and how can local patients benefit from this critical service?

Understanding Lung Function Screening

Lung Function Screening, also known as Pulmonary Function Testing, is a range of tests that help determine how well your lungs work. These tests measure how much air your lungs can hold, how quickly you can move air in and out of your lungs, and how well your lungs add oxygen and remove carbon dioxide from your body. These tests can diagnose lung diseases, determine the severity of lung problems, and evaluate whether a treatment for a lung disease is effective.

The Importance of Routine Lung Function Screening

Regular lung function screening can be a crucial element of maintaining your overall health. It's not just for smokers or those with chronic respiratory conditions. Any individual can benefit from the fundamental knowledge about the state of their lung health. By incorporating lung function screening into your regular healthcare routine, you can:

• Catch respiratory conditions early: Detect diseases such as asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema at their early stages before symptoms become severe.

• Track lung health over time: Monitor changes to your lung health to promptly address any issues that may arise.

• Adjust treatments as needed: If you already have a lung-related condition, regular screenings can help your doctor fine-tune your treatments and medications over time based on progress and efficacy.
