A PFT is a series of tests used to measure lung function, including air flow, lung volume, and gas exchange, to diagnose and monitor respiratory conditions.

Avoid smoking and heavy meals before the test, inform your healthcare provider about any medications, and wear comfortable clothing.

Key parameters include Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1), Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), Residual Volume (RV), and Diffusing Capacity (DLCO).

The Pulmonary Function Test at Chirayu SuperSpeciality Hospital is priced at ₹1500.

Recovery time varies based on the severity of the burns and the type of surgery but can range from weeks to months.

A Stress Test evaluates the heart’s response to physical exertion or medication, helping diagnose heart disease and assess heart function.

Wear comfortable clothing and appropriate exercise footwear, avoid heavy meals before the test, and inform your healthcare provider about any medications.

You will exercise on a treadmill or bike while your heart rate, blood pressure, and ECG are monitored. If you are unable to exercise, medication may be used to simulate exercise.

The test is generally safe, but it may cause temporary symptoms such as dizziness or shortness of breath. Inform your healthcare provider of any concerns before the test.

Results are usually available within a day or two. A preliminary assessment may be provided immediately after the test, with a detailed report following shortly.
