What Is a Spirometry Test Used For?

A spirometer is a test to see how well your lungs work. Usually, the test itself will be conducted with your GP or a practice nurse at your doctor’s surgery but it can be performed anywhere.

The test is a helpful way for healthcare professionals to check your lungs and airways to effectively diagnose a lung condition, such as asthma, COPD, and restrictive lung disease (such as interstitial pulmonary fibrosis).

A spirometry test measures the volume of air you both inhale and exhale, and how quickly you exhale.
