4. Vitalograph intends that a new Bacterial Viral Filter
(Eco BVF) be used for every subject to prevent cross
contamination. Using a new Eco BVF provides a significant
level of protection of the subject, the device and the user
against the risk of cross contamination during spirometry
manoeuvres. Eco BVF and SafeTway mouthpieces are
single use items and must be disposed of after use.
3. Operating Instructions
If the device has just been unpacked or transported, ensure that it is
left sitting, fully powered and is at room temperature prior to testing.
