PFT (Pulmonary Function Test):
A Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) that Sahaj Hospital offers is a diagnostic tool used to assess lung function and determine how well the lungs are working. It measures various aspects of lung performance, such as lung volume, airflow, and the ability to exchange gases. PFTs are commonly used to diagnose respiratory conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchitis, and emphysema, as well as to evaluate the effects of treatment or surgery on lung health.

Sleep Study (Polysomnography):
A sleep study, also known as polysomnography, is a comprehensive diagnostic test used to evaluate sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless leg syndrome. The test is typically conducted overnight in a sleep center or a specialized sleep clinic, where patients are monitored while they sleep. Sleep studies are particularly important for diagnosing sleep apnea, a condition where a person’s breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep, leading to disrupted rest and various health risks. The study also helps identify conditions like narcolepsy, parasomnias (such as sleepwalking), and circadian rhythm disorders.

Both PFTs and sleep studies are essential diagnostic tools that help doctors evaluate and manage respiratory and sleep-related issues, ensuring that patients receive the appropriate care and treatment for their conditions. Our experienced staff and the modern technology help in conducting an efficient diagnosis, therefore making the process comfortable for the patient.
