Pulmonary function tests are a group of procedures that measure the function of the lungs, revealing problems in the way a patient breathes.
Individuals who have had recent surgery on the chest, have a collapsed lung, or have certain heart conditions should not undergo a pulmonary function test as it may pose risks to their health. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine if a pulmonary function test is safe for a specific individual.

Pulmonary Function Test (PFT)
Spirometry is a test that measures lung function, specifically the volume of air inhaled and exhaled by the lungs. It is commonly used to assess respiratory health and diagnose conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other lung diseases. It is part of the respiratory system.
Yes, alcohol consumption can potentially affect the results of a pulmonary function test as it may temporarily impact lung function. Alcohol can cause changes in breathing patterns, affect respiratory muscle strength, and impair coordination, all of which can influence test results. It is generally advised to avoid alcohol consumption before undergoing pulmonary function testing.
The horizontal line test is used to determine whether a function is one-to-one and if it had a inverse.
