Diagnostic tests
Spirometry
Spirometry measures how much air you can breathe in and out of your lungs, as well as how easily and fast you can blow the air out. It measures how well the lungs are working, helping to diagnose conditions such as asthma and assess treatment effectiveness.
FeNO
Non-invasive test that measures the level of inflammation in the airways, aiding in the diagnosis and management of asthma
Aeroallergen sensitisation
Aeroallergen Sensitisation Testing
This test detects sensitisation to common airborne allergens such as pollen, dust mites, mold, cat, and dog dander. It is performed through a blood test measuring specific IgE antibodies, helping to identify potential allergic triggers for respiratory symptoms.
Cardiorespiratory Sleep Study
A comprehensive test to evaluate sleep-disordered breathing in children. Essential for identifying conditions such as Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) and determining the need for removal of adenoids and tonsils
