A spirometer is used to measure both the volume of inhaled and exhaled air and the breathing air flow rate. This device can be used to diagnose impaired respiratory functions and diseases at an early stage, just like all common lung function devices.
Are you looking for a spirometer to examine lungs? DocCheck is the right place for you! We have spirometers from renowned brands like Vitalograph and ndd (New Diagnostic Design). This allows you to examine patients who you think may have lung, respiratory or heart diseases. You can buy your new spirometer, peak flow meter or COPD screener conveniently online on DocCheck Shop.
There are many different lung function test devices, the main ones being spirometers, COPD screeners and Peak-Flow-Meters. These diagnostic devices can analyse lung function and vitality in different ways. Even though they work differently, they are all different kinds of spirometers. Spirometry examinations are the most common type of pulmonology examination. They are used to examining patients who have or may have respiratory, lung or heart diseases. Spirometers are also used for monitoring and prevention purposes.
All spirometers require an active co-operation of the patient. They have to exhale into the device through the mouthpiece. Many spirometers have therefore some motivational graphics that help the patient do the examination correctly, increasing the measurement’s accuracy. This category offers an exclusive range from which you can choose the spirometer that best fits your interest.
A spirometer is a medical diagnostic instrument. It measures the volume of inhaled and exhaled air and the patient's air flow rate. Nowadays, the air volume is determined by indirect measuring. These are carried out by ultrasounds, turbines or pneumotachograph parts inside the spirometer. Turbine devices determine the speed of the built-in turbine. Ultrasonic spirometers measure the difference in transit time of two ultrasonic paths, one directed against and one with the air flow. Pneumotachograph ones measure the flow velocity via pressure differences in the breathing tube when air flows.
DocCheck Shop has PC spirometers, handheld spirometers, and spirometers which come with a software or even a thermal printer. You will surely find what you are looking for here!
COPD is an abbreviation for "chronic obstructive pulmonary disease”. More than 15 % of Germans over the age of 40 are affected by an undiagnosed COPD. Chronic obstructive bronchitis (COB) is a frequently occurring disease. With a COPD screener, you can efficiently examine if a patient has the risk of developing a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. You can use a COPD screener to determine their lung’s age and other relevant data. Testing with a handheld COPD screener usually saves a lot of time and money compared to a spirometer.
Patients can check their lung function independently using a Peak-Flow-Meter. They receive an assessment on how their therapy is working. Asthma patients can carry out their own check-ups. The patient can also find out whether medication has been correctly adjusted or whether they are inhaling correctly.
How do I use a Peak-Flow-Meter? An asthma training can easily teach a patient how to use a Peak-Flow-Meter. The basic principle is to inhale and exhale into the device as deeply as possible while standing. This should be repeated several times. The device has a scale with a pointer which indicates the measured value. Patients can find a traffic light system for understanding the Peak-Flow-Meter at the Deutsche Atemwegsliga e.V.. This indicates which values are normal and when it is better to see a doctor.
