Lung Function & Exercise Tests

exp date isn't null, but text field is

Your child’s doctor has requested that a lung function and an exercise airway challenge test be carried out on your child. The test will be carried out in the Respiratory Function Laboratory.

Why does this need to be done?
Breathing tests can help your doctor decide how well your lungs are working or if your child has asthma or other lung problems.

Our information leaflet for patients and parents explains more.
