Pulmonary Function Test
One of the highlights of our clinic is in-house pulmonary function tests (PFTs). These tests play a crucial role in assessing lung function, aiding in diagnosis, and guiding treatment plans.
To perform this test we do need a referral faxed over to 928-774-0372.
If you are an existing patient of our clinic, please reach out to your doctor about this test.
To ensure you are well-prepared for your PFT, here are a few essential tips:
Refrain from smoking at least 24 hours before the test, as it can impact the accuracy of the results.
Try not to eat a large meal at least two hours before the test to prevent any discomfort during the procedure.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows you to breathe easily.
Inform your healthcare provider about any medications you are currently taking, as some may need to be adjusted before the test.
