PL10 PulmoLife Spirometer
The hand-held PulmoLife Spirometer measures and displays a patient’s FEV1, FEV1% predicted and a “Lung Age” estimation. Lung Age can be used to show smokers the damage caused by smoking and encourage smoking cessation.
Simple and easy to use, the PulmoLife offers a practical solution for COPD testing in adult smokers.
The PulmoLife measures and shows the patients’ FEV1 and FEV1% predicted results on its high visibility display. FEV1 is strongly recommended as the measurement of choice in COPD screening and the percentage of the result against predicted values can be used to help determine the level of severity of disease. The PulmoLife uses these results to calculate and display an optional ‘Lung Age’ estimation. This is an equivalent ‘Lung Age’ based upon the FEV1% predicted results and can be used to show smokers the physical damage caused by smoking and encouraging smoking cessation. Smokers are at the greatest risk for developing COPD and decline in lung function in susceptible smokers has been shown to be twice of non-smokers.
