The Nascool Peak Flow Meter is a single patient use device used to measure how well air moves out of the lungs (peak expiratory flow rate) in liters/minutes. Patients using a peak flow meter to monitor respiratory conditions such as asthma should be under the care of a physician. Why you should use peak flow meter? Readings from a peak flow meter can help you or your child recognize early changes that may be signs of worsening asthma. During an asthma attack, the smooth muscles that surround the airways tighten and cause the airways to narrow. The peak flow meter alerts you to the tightening of the airways often hours or even days before you have any asthma symptoms. By using your PEF with your asthma action plan, you will know when to take your rescue (quick acting) asthma inhaler or other asthma medicine. By following the steps in your asthma action plan, you may be able to stop the narrowing of the airways quickly and avoid a severe asthma emergency. The peak flow meter can also be used to help you: Learn what triggers your asthma Decide if your asthma action plan is working Decide when to add or adjust asthma medications Know when to seek emergency care
