Pulmonary Function Testing
Lung function tests (also called pulmonary function tests, or PFTs) evaluate how well your lungs work. The tests determine how much air your lungs can hold and how quickly you can move air in and out of your lungs. We use PFTs at Northampton Area Pediatrics to help determine if a child's asthma is well-controlled. We also sometimes use these tests to help diagnose asthma.
