Diagnostic spirometry is a vital tool in assessing lung function and is routinely used in diagnosing and monitoring various respiratory conditions. At 360 Medicx, we provide precise spirometry testing at our Harley Street Clinic, delivered by experienced respiratory professionals in a comfortable, private setting.
Spirometry allows our clinicians to assess how well your lungs function by measuring how much air you can inhale and exhale, and how quickly. This is essential in early detection of lung disease, monitoring treatment progress, and preparing patients for surgery or specialist care.
Our spirometry tests assist in the diagnosis and evaluation of several respiratory conditions, including:
Asthma
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Pulmonary fibrosis
Interstitial lung disease
Post-COVID respiratory issues
Restrictive lung disorders
Bronchiectasis
Exercise-induced asthma
You may benefit from spirometry if you experience any of the following symptoms:
Persistent coughing or wheezing
Shortness of breath during activity
A history of smoking
Known respiratory conditions that require regular monitoring
Reduced stamina or breathlessness after illness (e.g., Long COVID)
Pre-operative assessments for surgery
During the test, you will be asked to:
Sit comfortably with a clip on your nose
Inhale deeply and exhale forcefully into a mouthpiece
Repeat the test 2-3 times to ensure accuracy
Results such as FVC (Forced Vital Capacity) and FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second) will be recorded
A bronchodilator may be given between tests to check for lung response to medication.
In addition to spirometry, we offer a wider range of pulmonary diagnostics, including:
Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT)
Pulse oximetry
Peak flow measurement
Sleep study referrals
Imaging via partner clinics (X-ray, CT, MRI)
These help us build a comprehensive picture of your respiratory health.
