Spirometry
Spirometry (also ergospirometry) helps to assess physical fitness, maximum intake of oxygen as well as the anaerobic threshold with a high amount of precision in relation to the average population (average as far as age, physical height and sex are concerned).
During the examination, physical exertion on an ergometre is gradually increased. The intake of oxygen and the emission of CO2 with every breath are assessed using a breathing mask.
If physical fitness is limited, spirometry helps to find out whether that is caused by defects in breathing function, cardiovascular system or muscle metabolism.

We can offer all necessary laboratory tests with the help of an associated central laboratory.
