Respiration clinic
Spirometry unit was established in 1995 with equipments such as spirometry and Nitrogen washout for determination of total lung volume. Thereafter, Ergospirometry, sleep test and DLCO were added to the unit. Recently, "sleep test unit" with one hospitalization bed has been added to this service and all candidates for this test are hospitalized for 24 hours.
Mrs.Teymoori as an acquainted technician and general manager has cooperated with this service, ever since.
