1 DESCRIPTION

1.1 General Description

The RESPIFIT S is a portable device for inspiratory muscle training.

The device is designed for the following indications: Patients with chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease and lung emphysema; for pre- and post-
operative respiratory therapy in association with pulmonary rehabilitation
and for patients with neuromuscular diseases involving the respiratory
muscles at an early stage of the disease.

The RESPIFIT S can be used to set up training programmes to increase
both strength and endurance of the respiratory muscles. Integrated
functions can also determine the capacity of the inspiratory muscles, i.e.
the strength and endurance of this muscle group.

An  essential  component  of  the  device  is  the  graphical  representation  of
the  exercise  sequence,  which  shows  the  patient  whether  he/she  is
actually complying with the required training intensity
The patient’s individual exercise and configuration data is stored on the
removable datakey.

The interchangeable handheld patient module offers the ultimate in
hygiene and safety.

1.2 Intended Use

The RESPIFIT S is designed for personal training to increase the
strength and endurance of the inspiratory respiratory muscles in patients
from the age of 10 years.
