Pulmonary Function Test (PFT)
Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) St. James Mercy Hospital Respiratory Therapy, 1st Floor 411 Canisteo St. Hornell, NY 14843 607-324- 8159 To schedule an appointment: 607-324-2879 To fax to scheduling: 607-324-8221 What is pulmonary function testing and why is it done? Pulmonary function tests (also called PFTs or lung function tests) help determine how well your lungs are functioning. The results of these tests tell your physician how much air your lungs can hold, how quickly you can move air into and out of your lungs, and how well your lungs are able to use oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide. The tests help your physician determine if you have a lung disease, help provide a measure of how significant your lung disease is, and can show how well the treatment for your lung disease is working. How is a pulmonary function test done? Pulmonary function testing is usually done by a specially trained respiratory therapist or technician. For most pulmonary function tests, you will be asked to wear a nose clip to make sure that no air passes through your nose during the test. You will be asked to breathe into a mouthpiece that is connected to a machine called a spirometer. The technician may encourage you to breathe deeply during parts of the test to get the best results. Following all of the technician's instructions will help provide the most accurate results. How do I prepare for my test? You should not eat a heavy meal just before this test. You should not smoke for six hours before the test.

Breathing and Lung Function Tests Tests to Measure Your Breathing
Breathing and lung function tests Tests to measure your breathing What are breathing tests? Breathing tests measure how well your lungs are working. These tests are used to find the cause of problems such as feeling out of breath. They are sometimes called lung function tests. They measure things like: • how much air you can take into your lungs • how quickly you can blow air out of your lungs • how well your lungs can take up oxygen • the strength of your breathing muscles Your results are compared to what would be expected in healthy people of your age, height, sex and ethnicity. Your health care professional may also weigh you to calculate your body mass index (BMI) (nhs.uk/live-well/healthy-weight/bmi-calculator/ ). This is a way of measuring whether you’re a healthy weight for your height. Being overweight or underweight can affect your breathing, lung function and general health. Being overweight can cause breathlessness. Your health care professional will also compare your results with any earlier test results, to track your progress. Tests include: • peak flow test • spirometry and bronchodilator responsiveness (reversibility) test • lung volume measurement • gas transfer test • respiratory muscle strength • exhaled carbon monoxide levels • fractional exhaled nitric oxide testing (FeNO) Peak flow test What is a peak flow test? The peak flow test measures how fast you can breathe out after you’ve taken a full breath in. Your peak flow score is sometimes called your peak expiratory flow (PEF). Breathing and lung function tests 1 blf.org.uk/breathing-tests Your GP or nurse should ask you to do a peak flow test at your annual asthma review.

SPIROMETRY a Spirometer Is a Vital Tool in the Measurement of Lung Functions. It Provides Important Information to Help Diagnose
SPIROMETRY A spirometer is a vital tool in the measurement of lung functions. It provides important information to help diagnose, manage and treat a patient with any lung disease including asthma, and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: emphysema, and chronic bronchitis). Most children by five years of age can perform a spirometry. The cost of owning a spirometer has been decreasing and insurance companies, including Medicare and Medicaid will reimburse the physician for performing the spirometry and the interpretation, so in a short time the spirometer will pay for itself. In the future we will see that a pulmonary function testing will be required to be done for all patients with a diagnosis of cough, bronchitis, wheezing, emphysema, pneumonia or any respiratory disorder. Diagnosing asthma early at its onset is very important in helping reduce the patient’s lung function over time. Asthma is a chronic disease and early treatment can keep a person breathing normal for life, unfortunately poorly controlled asthma can lead to COPD, which is chronic emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Monitoring someone with asthma or COPD with a spirometer can inform a physician on when to increase or even decrease medication. There are great videos on the internet, including you tube describing how to perform a spirometry, as well as interpreting a spirometry. Reading and interpreting the spirometry data is simple. The most important pieces of information are the FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC ratio, and FEF 25-75 percentages. The data is given in actual measurement of volumes in liters, but one should just focus on the percentages.

Effects of Position, Dead Air Space and Exercise on Breathing
Effects of Position, Dead Air Space and Exercise on Breathing Background information Spirometry is a diagnostic technique used to measure respiratory volumes. The instrument used to measure these volumes is called spirometer. The four pulmonary volumes include tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, expiratory reserve volume, and residual volume. The lung volumes for a patient are usually compared with predicted lung volumes based on age, sex, and body size. There are also four standard lung capacities, which consist of two or more standard lung volume in combination. The four lung capacities are inspiratory capacity, vital capacity, functional residual capacity, and total lung capacity. The volume of air that enters or leaves the lungs during one breathing cycle is called the tidal volume (TV). Normally, the amount of air that is expired during a breathing cycle is equal to the amount of air that is inspired during the cycle. Resting tidal volume is the amount exchanged during normal, resting breathing (eupnea). According to Levitzky (2007), “during normal, quiet breathing (eupnea) the tidal volume of a 70-kg adult is about 500 mL per breath, but this volume can increase dramatically, for example, during exercise”. During times of increased demand, for example, during exercise, the tidal volume can be increased using some of the inspiratory or expiratory reserve lung volume to bring more fresh air into the body. The volume of gas that is inhaled into the lungs during a maximal forced inspiration starting at the end of a normal tidal inspiration is called the inspiratory reserve volume (IRV). It is determined by the strength of contraction of the inspiratory muscles, inward elastic recoil of the lung and the chest wall.

It is also widely used to evaluate the beneﬁ cial effects and adverse reactions of therapeutic interventions and to monitor the effects of environmental and occupational exposures. In addition, forced spirometry is used in disability/ impairment evaluations, in preoperative assessments, and to monitor lung function over time. Spirometry has shown considerable growth in the past 30 years, for several reasons: (a) published standards and testing guidelines,1-6 (b) improved spirometers and software, (c) evi- dence that both patients and physicians have inaccurate perceptions of the severity of airﬂ ow obstruction,7-11 (d ) evidence that history taking and physical examination by themselves are not 1 c01.indd 1 5/26/2011 6:27:10 PM © Jones & Bartlett Learning, LLC.

This document is based on these guidelines and will supersede the previous ITS document on Spirometry performance and interpretation2. What is Spirometry? Spirometry is a physiological test that measures how an individual inhales or exhales volumes of air as a function of time. The primary signal measured in spirometry may be volume or flow. Spirometry is invaluable as a screening test of general respiratory health in the same way that blood pressure provides important information about general cardiovascular health. However, on its own, spirometry does not lead clinicians directly to an aetiological diagnosis. Spirometry can be undertaken with many different types of equipment, and requires cooperation between the subject and the examiner, and the results obtained will depend on technical as well as personal factors.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Diagnostic Considerations MARVIN DEWAR, M.D., J.D., and R
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Diagnostic Considerations MARVIN DEWAR, M.D., J.D., and R. WHIT CURRY, JR., M.D. University of Florida College of Medicine, Gainesville, Florida Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is characterized by the gradual progression of irrevers- ible airflow obstruction and increased inflammation in the airways and lung parenchyma that is generally distinguishable from the inflammation caused by asthma. Most chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is associated with smoking, but occupational exposure to irritants and air pollution also are important risk factors. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease typically present with coughing, sputum production, and dyspnea on exertion. However, none of these findings alone is diagnostic. The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease diagnostic criterion for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity ratio of less than 70 percent of the predicted value. Severity is further stratified based on forced expiratory volume in one second and symptoms. Chest radiog- raphy may rule out alternative diagnoses and comorbid conditions. Selected patients should be tested for G1-antitrypsin deficiency. Arterial blood gas testing is recommended for patients pre- senting with signs of severe disease, right-sided heart failure, or significant hypoxemia. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease also is a systemic disorder with weight loss and dysfunction of respiratory and skeletal muscles. (Am Fam Physician 2006;73:669-76, 677-8.
