At our clinic, we offer a private hypoxic challenge test, a specialised diagnostic procedure designed to evaluate how your body responds to low oxygen levels. Led by Dr. Banerjee, a highly experienced respiratory and sleep physician, this test is invaluable for diagnosing conditions such as sleep apnoea, pulmonary hypertension, and other respiratory disorders that affect oxygen saturation.

What IS A HYPOXIC CHALLENGE TEST?

During the hypoxic challenge test, you will be exposed to controlled, reduced levels of oxygen while your response is closely monitored. This test provides essential insights into how well your lungs and heart function under stress, helping Dr. Banerjee assess the severity of your condition and determine the most effective treatment options.

The test is non-invasive and typically involves breathing in air with lower oxygen content while your blood oxygen levels, heart rate, and other vital signs are carefully observed. The results can be crucial in identifying issues related to oxygen delivery in the body, which may not be apparent in normal, everyday circumstances.

Dr. Banerjee, with his extensive expertise in respiratory and sleep medicine, will ensure the test is carried out safely and accurately. Following the procedure, he will provide a detailed explanation of your results, discuss possible diagnoses, and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Our clinic is equipped with the latest technology to ensure the best care and most precise results in a comfortable, professional, and confidential environment. Whether you’re experiencing unexplained shortness of breath, sleep disturbances, or need further investigation into existing conditions, the hypoxic challenge test provides a clear picture of your respiratory health.
