Pulmonary function tests (pfts) are a group of tests that measure how well your lungs work. This includes how well you?re able to breathe and how effective your lungs are able to bring oxygen to the rest of your body. Doctors may order these tests if you?re having symptoms of lung problems. You should follow the instructions of your examiner before tests are performed.
