CONSULTATIONS

Pnoesis - Specialized Medical Practice

The examinations carried out in the office by the Pulmonologist are:

• Respiratory Functional Exploration (FRE), comprising:

- Spirometry (calculation of air volumes and respiratory flow rates)

- Plethysmography (calculation of static lung volumes that cannot be mobilized)

- Diffusion of carbon monoxide (DLCO) which reflects the gas transfer capacity in the alveoli

*** NB: EFR does not involve any particular risk. To obtain reliable results, it is recommended not to smoke and not to take any bronchodilator less than 4 hours before the examination.

• Diurnal oxymetry, with the possibility of performing nocturnal oxymetry registration

• Exhaled fraction of nitric oxide (FENO)

• PRICK Allergic skin tests

• Polysomnography and Polygraphy to be organized at home with our own equipment and expertise in analysis and interpretation of results, or in a hospital environment with our collaborators

Additional respiratory examinations can be organized by the team in a hospital environment:

• Ergospirometry (respiratory stress test)

• Bronchial endoscopy

• Histamine broncho-provocation test

TWe offer consultations on weekdays by appointment.
