Spirometry is the most common of the lung function tests, measuring lung function, in particular, the amount (volume) and/or speed (flow) of air that can be inhaled and exhaled.
The filter media has hydrophobis properties to minimise droplet contamination, as well as providing a low resistance and low dead space to improve the validity and consistency of respiratory testing results to minimise rebreathing.
Product features and benefits:
• Disposable bacterial/viral filter for adults and children
• Stable, sturdy and affordable
• Completely sealed, avoiding being affected by external factors
• Suitable for adults and children, thanks to its oval and ergonomic design
• Compatible with several pulmonary function diagnostic devices
• Low airflow resistance
• Reduces risk of cross-contamination
• Individual packaging
• Reduces costs while it do not need an additional mouthpiece
USES
1. Filters used in pulmonary function laboratories are consumable items used for trapping bacteria and viruses, ensuring prevention of any cross-contamination. The Filters generally consist of a flat wad of electrostatically charged fibres or pleats formed from a wad of fibres.
2. They are also designed to stop moisture droplets passing to and from The spirometer 3. Spirometry Filters protects both patient and spirometer from cross contamination.
4. Should be used when an inspiratory manoeuvre is performed or when testing patients who pose a health risk to others.
