Abstrakt: Backround:Renal failure could affect the mechanical and ventilatory function of the lungs either directly or indirectly. Chronic diseases have become a major cause of global morbidity and mortality even in developing countries. It is a study to showing the effect of chronic renal failure on pulmonary function tests. Material and Method: This study was conducted on 100 patients which were divided into two groups (Study group and Control group) of 50 patients each; age range between 18-55 years by using the simple random sampling technique. The pulmonary function test was carried out by using the Computerized spirometer (RMS-Helios 401 Transducer no 400-666 in both study as well as control groups. Result: The Mean values of pulmonary function test parameters that is FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, FEF25-75% and PEFR were higher than in study group as compared to control group. Analysis was performed by using SPSS version 17.0 computer software. The difference in the mean value of PFT parameters were found statistically highly significant (p<0.001 in all).Conclusion:This study shows that pulmonary function significantly deteriorates in Chronic Renal Failure patients.
