SpiroCard® PC Spirometer

-Calibration not required.

-The patented pre-calibrated, disposable mouthpieces eliminate the need to sterilize or calibrate the equipment.

-Exceeds the ATS Standardization of Spirometry Guidelines (1994).

-More than 25 parameters calculated.

-Only view and report on the test parameters you desire. FEV6 and FEV1/FEV6 (recommended by NLHEP).

- Full-function PFT performs FVC, SVC, MVV, Pre/Post Testing and Flow Volume Loop tests. Automatic test quality messages, narrative interpretation and lung age calculation.

-Easy-to-use Office Medic™ Software allows you to customize report parameters, predicted normals and graphs.

-Can be connected via a Type II PC Card Slot or a USB Port.

The SpiroCard Spirometer was validated by the LDS Hospital's Pulmonary Laboratory against 26 demanding waveforms and out-performed systems costing 10 times its price.

 

The SpiroCard Spirometer was found to have unparalleled accuracy. Not only does it exceed the ATS Standard it also out-performs the competition:

 

Parameter	ATS	QRS  SpiroCard  Spirometer	Midmark® IQmark™ Digital Spirometer™
FVC Accuracy	3.0%	Less than 0.2%	Less than 2%
FVC Precision	3.5%	Less than 1.3%	Less than 2%
FEV1 Accuracy	3.0%	Less than 0.04%	Less than 2%
FEV1 Precision	3.5%	Less than 0.9%	Less than 2%
PEF Accuracy	10.0%	Less than 2.0%	Less than 5%
PEF Precision	5.0%	Less than 0.8%	Less than 2%
