Performing a Test
Explain that the purpose of the test is to determine how much air a person’s
lungs can hold and how quickly that air can be expelled. Since the spirome-
try test requires active participation by the patient, it is very important to
explain the test maneuver:
take the
spirette™
into the mouth with the lips sealing around the
spirette™
, taking care not to block its opening with the tongue or bite
down excessively on the
spirette™
breathe calmly
fill lungs completely
exhale as hard and fast as possible
continue blowing out until the lungs are completely empty
breathe in again.
If you perform spirometry tests with
EasyOne Pro™
on patients for the first
time, you should practice testing yourself and others prior to testing
patients. You will learn to recognize the cause of problems by interpreting
the Quality Messages displayed by the program after each effort and how to
avoid these problems. After a poor effort explain to your patient how to
improve the maneuver.
Caution
Risk of Injury—Pulmonary function tests require maximum
effort on the part of the patient and may lead to dizziness.
Risk of Infection—The
spirette™
is designed for single use.
Use a fresh
spirette™
for each new patient.
Risk of Infection—In settings where tuberculosis or other
diseases that are spread by droplet nuclei are likely to be
encountered, proper attention to environmental engineering
