What is a spirometer?
A spirometer is a device used to monitor asthma. It measures the air expelled from the lungs when the patient blows into the device as hard as possible.
Uses of the spirometer:
- Identifying changes in airways
- Effective monitoring of asthma
- Decision for emergency medical assistance
- Evaluating the effectiveness of treatment and therapeutic plans
- Adjusting medication doses as per doctor's instructions
- Identifying factors that trigger asthma attacks
What is the Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF)?
The peak expiratory flow (PEF) is the speed at which air is expelled from the lungs. PEF values reflect airway function. When the patient feels well, the value is high. When the airways are inflamed or narrowed, the value decreases.
Importance of measuring PEF:
Regular measurement of PEF with the spirometer allows for the adjustment of treatment and the identification of the right timing for medication use.
Diagnostic phase: It defines the period during which the patient's condition is assessed, and causes and solutions for the respiratory problem are determined.
Normal values and measurement range: The normal value is the best possible PEF result, considered 100% or reference. In adults, typical values range between 400–700 l/min.
Instructions for Use:
- Adjust the flow indicator according to the doctor's instructions.
- Move the check point to the base of the measurement scale.
- Hold the spirometer lightly without touching the scale.
- Inhale deeply.
- Hold your breath, place the mask in your mouth, and seal your lips tightly around it.
- Blow as hard and quickly as you can.
- Read the value, record it, and repeat the measurement 3 times.
Cleaning: The Novama PEF 2 spirometer is easy to clean. It is recommended to rinse the outer surfaces once a week.
ABS Material: The device is made from ABS, a material resistant to mechanical shocks and wear. It ensures high durability even with frequent use and is compatible with cleaning and disinfecting agents.
High Accuracy: The Novama PEF 2 has a low margin of error: ±10 l/min or ±10% of the reading. This ensures accurate and useful results.
Long Lifespan: Designed for up to 7,000 uses, it is a reliable tool for monitoring respiratory function in homes or clinics.
