Electronic spirometer 40503

hand-heldfor lung improvementwith lung age monitor

The Vitalograph Lung Age monitor measures FEV1 and compares it with predicted normal values to calculate a smoker or ex-smokers ‘lung age’. A high lung age in relation to the subject’s chronological age can provide a clearer presentation of the negative impact of continued smoking on lung function and encourage smoking cessation. Identification of a reduction in FEV1 provides an early warning of the damage already suffered by the lungs at the pre-symptomatic stage, when smoking cessation is most effective. Reduced FEV1 is a key indicator of COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), often caused by smoking. Measures FEV1 and displays FEV1 as a % of predicted value. Displays lung age to help illustrate the impact of smoking on the subject’s lungs. Large, easy to read display. Electronic record – no need for record cards. Automatically stores best values in a test session. Zones indicate level of abnormality. Quality of blow indicator. Suitable for use in clinic with Bacterial Viral Filters (BVF™). The Lung Age Monitor comes with: Pouch Instructions For Use (IFU) 2 x AA Batteries Plastic Mouthpiece
