Performing spirometry tests could not be easier than with the new Micro Direct alpha spirometer. Simply enter the patient’s age, height and gender, select FVC or VC and begin the test series.
Test information is presented in an easy to read format on a clear, bright color display. The best test is automatically selected and built-in quality control checks insure accurate results. Test data along with the diagnostic interpretation and estimated lung age can be instantly printed on the integrated printer or to a PDF file via a USB connection with our report generation PC software.
The alpha features a highly accurate Fleisch pneumotach flow measuring system, battery operated portability and is shipped complete with all necessary accessories in a study carrying case.
