Convert a standard computer into a powerful spirometer
SpiroVision-3+TM is a cost-effective device that converts a desktop or laptop computer into a complete spirometer. The SpiroVision-3+ system consists of two elements: an ergonomical handset that connects directly to a PC's serial or USB port, and the SpiroVision-3+ Software for Windows.
The small and lightweight SpiroVision-3+ handset is easy for all patients, young and old, to handle. It is powered through the computer's PS-2 port, eliminating the need for batteries or an external power source. SpiroVision-3+ can be used with the operator's choice of mouthpieces or bacterial filters, allowing them to control the cost and quality of disposables. The sensor is easily sterilized and meets the most current ATS standards for accuracy.
SpiroVision-3+ for Windows is easy to use and offers shortcut icons and pull down menus for fast and intuitive operation. All maneuvers (FVC, SVC, and MVV) are displayed in real time, so the operator can monitor tests as they are performed. During FVC, a split screen shows real time Flow/Volume loops and time/Volume curves, making it easier to recognize and correct testing errors. Computer generated quality control messages further help the technician ensure test quality.
The new "Bubbles" incentive gives patients a visual goal based on predicted results. This simple, user-friendly device helps patients get more involved in the test and yields optimal results.
Using ATS guidelines, SpiroVision-3+ identifies "best tests" and lets the operator accept or reject them. All efforts may be saved. Results are analyzed using a choice of predicted standards built into the software. New predicted sets can easily be added by the operator to keep SpiroVision-3+ current with industry changes.
In addition to demographic data and test results, patient records can include notes, medical history, employment and billing information, and more. The software contains clearly labeled fields for easy data entry. The operator can customize additional fields for data specific to their application.
Results are printed in color, an especially helpful feature when superimposing multiple graphs. Tests from different sessions can be compared by creating trend graphs using your choice of parameters. SpiroVision-3+ is network compatible. Files can be shared by different stations, through the internet, and by other programs.

User selected parameters
Reports can be tailored to include only the parameters you want, in the order you desire.
Choice of prediction standards
SpiroVision-3+ is programmed with the NHANESIII, Knudson, Morris, Bass, ITS and other predicted sets.
Easily updated
The operator can add other predicted sets or modify existing ones, to keep SpiroVision-3+ current with industry changes.
Customizable
Patient records can include physicians' notes and comments. In addition to standard demographic information, fields can be custom-labeled to contain data specific to your application.
Network compatible
SpiroVision-3+ allows data sharing and is compatible with Windows network protocols
File Sharing
Individual tests or complete patient files can be transmitted to other stations eletronically or stored to a floppy disk.
Accurate
SpiroVision-3+ meets or exceeds ATS standards for accuracy. Its unique sensor design that is unaffected by environmental changes. The built-in temperature sensor and the ability to make BTPS corrections ensure that measurements are exact for a wide range of flows, with low resistance.
Hardware Features
SpiroVision-3+ uses an innovative new digital turbine to deliver accurate inspiratory and expiratory measurements at low to high flow rates. The result is precision and reproducibility equal to or exceeding the latest ATS standards. The sensor is easy to disinfect and can be used with one-way, bidirectional or filtered mouthpieces
