Vitalograph COPD-6 Screening Device

Want to know more?

Fast & accurate COPD screener to identify those at risk of COPD at the pre-symptomatic stage.

The Vitalograph COPD-6 is a handheld respiratory monitor which measures subject respiratory parameters FEV1 and FEV6. It also displays FEV1 %, FEV6 % Predicted and FEV1/FEV6 ratio. It is designed for lung function testing of adults and children, 5 years and older, in the home and professional healthcare environments, e.g. primary care, hospitals and occupational health centres.

This screening device can be used by healthcare professionals or assistants as a rapid pre-spirometry test to screen-out at-risk individuals who do not have COPD and indicate those who may be at risk of COPD at the pre-symptomatic stage. This “screening” or “case selection” for full spirometry examinations may result in earlier medical intervention and facilitate better clinical outcomes.

Features:

• Monitors COPD patients using their ‘number’, the obstructive index which is based on a percent of predicted
• Facilitates ‘case selection’ so that spirometry can be focused on those likely to be diagnosed with COPD
• Screens out anyone with normal FEV1 without the risk of false COPD negatives
• Displays FEV1, FEV6, ratio and % predicted, obstructive index, COPD classification and lung age
• Displays the GOLD COPD classification (stage I – IV) to help recognize the need for a change in the patient’s management plan
• Built-in quality of blow indicator
