- Gives FEV1 result as a percentage of predicted values
- Lung Age interpretation (Morris and Temple) FEV1
- Used as a motivational tool for smoking cessation FEV1
PulmoLife technology:
This small, innovative device measures FEV1, the measurement of choice in COPD screening. The unit will display a patient's result together with the FEV1 as a percentage of their predicted value. These results are used to calculate a 'Lung Age'. The associated 'Lung Age' graphical display may help the patient realise the physical damage caused by smoking, encouraging attendance for smoking cessation advice and full spirometry assessment, leading to early diagnosis and appropriate management of COPD.
