Spirometer

Description

A spirometer is a lung function testing device used to measure how much air a person can inhale and exhale, and how quickly they can expel it. Clinics use it to record parameters such as FVC and FEV1 that help screen, diagnose, and monitor respiratory conditions. This product is designed for routine testing in hospitals, outpatient clinics, occupational health programs, and sports medicine settings. It supports consistent, repeatable measurements that inform treatment decisions and track progress over time.

Key features and benefits:
• Measures common indices like FVC, FEV1, and FEV1/FVC for objective assessment
• Clear display and prompts to guide correct test technique and reduce coaching time
• Flow sensor engineered for stability and repeatability across multiple tests
• Option to use disposable mouthpieces or filters to support hygienic workflows
• Portable form factor suited to bedside, ward rounds, or community screening
• Simple calibration and maintenance routines to keep results dependable

Common use cases:
• Baseline and periodic lung function checks for at-risk workers or athletes
• Pre- and post-bronchodilator testing to evaluate treatment response
• Monitoring chronic conditions such as asthma or COPD in follow-up visits
• Preoperative assessment and post-surgical recovery monitoring

How it compares:
• A spirometer provides more comprehensive data than a peak flow meter, capturing full flow–volume information rather than a single peak reading.
• Compared with large pulmonary lab systems, a portable unit offers faster setup and easier everyday use, making it ideal for routine screening and frequent follow-ups.

Good practice:
• Use trained coaching, proper posture, and nose clips for reliable results.
• Follow clinic infection-control procedures with single-patient-use consumables where required.
• Record multiple acceptable blows and save the best values to support clinical decisions.
