Spirography (spirometry) is a simple, affordable, and noninvasive method for diagnosing common respiratory diseases that assesses the mechanical function of the lungs, chest, and respiratory muscles by measuring pulmonary flows and volumes. Spirometry is the primary functional study of the respiratory system.

This is a simple and painless process that takes 10–20 minutes. The patient breathes through a mouthpiece connected to a spirometer. First, spirometry is performed without a sample, then with a pharmacological sample, if necessary. During the examination: The lung volumes that the patient can inhale and exhale are determined The exhalation rate is analyzed The main indicators of respiratory function are calculated The results are displayed in the form of a spirogram At the Docos Medical clinic in Kyiv, the entire procedure is performed under the supervision of a specialist, with clear instructions and instant data acquisition.
Docos Medical offers two types of spirometry:
