Introduction - English
The SpiroUSB is a PC connected spirometer dedicated to work with
the comprehensive Spirometry PC Software (SPCS).
SPCS is a fully Windows™ compatible spirometry system that
interfaces seamlessly with the SpiroUSB providing many display
options and includes powerful reporting and database facilities.
SPCS has many advanced features including display of real time
respiratory traces, predicted values, patient database, and the
ability to carry out pre and post bronchodilator and post steroid
testing.
The SpiroUSB uses the CareFusion Digital Volume Transducer, an
extremely stable form of volume transducer, which measures
expired air directly at B.T.P.S (Body Temperature and Pressure with
Saturated water vapour) thus avoiding the inaccuracies of
temperature corrections. This transducer is insensitive to the effects
of condensation and temperature and avoids the need for individual
calibration prior to performing a test.
