 Spirometry is a common lung function test used to measure how well your lungs work by assessing the amount (volume) of air you inhale and exhale, as well as how quickly you can expel air from your lungs. It is often used to diagnose and monitor lung conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other respiratory disorders. 

An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that records the electrical activity inside the heart over time. It is used to detect heart problems and monitor heart health. The ECG traces the heart’s rhythm and electrical impulses as waves on a graph, helping us identify irregularities in the heart's function.

 The Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) is a non-invasive test used to assess peripheral arterial disease (PAD), which affects blood flow to the limbs. The test compares the blood pressure in the ankle with the blood pressure in the arm (brachial artery). The ratio of these two measurements provides the ABPI. 

 Home (HBPM) and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) are methods used to measure blood pressure continuously over a 24-hour period while a person goes about their normal daily activities. You will be given a device from GP2Health to wear or use. These techniques provides a more accurate picture of a person's blood pressure compared to readings taken in a clinical setting.

 Sperm count analysis is essential when we investigate difficulties getting pregnant, but many men have concerns about their sperm counts well before this point. In partnership with The Centre for Life in Newcastle we are now able to answer your questions and make suggestions on how to improve your sperm counts.
