DESCRIPTION

The Simplicity Spirometer System is the simple and affordable solution for diagnostic and screening spirometry. The system features the NPB-500, a compact, hand-held spirometer that offers true portability and is as quick and easy to use as its name. The system performs all of the basic spirometry measurements, and includes automated comparisons to predicted values, pre-post medication comparison, interpretation from test results, and comprehensive testing quality control. They system meets American Thoracic Athletics Society standards for accuracy and precision, and meets National Lung Health Education Program (NLHEP) recommendation for screening spirometry. The system uses the new Nellcor Puritan Bennett FSII Flow Sensor, a low cost, disposable, single-patient-use pneumotach that minimizes cross contamination and fits both adulthood and pediatric patients.
