The MicroLab is mains/battery operated portable spirometer with the
unique combination of ease of use and sophistication.
Ease of use is assured through the use of context sensitive help
screens, accessed at a touch of a button, that explain every
MicroLab feature.
The MicroLab uses a Digital Volume Transducer, an extremely stable
form of volume transducer, which measures expired air directly at
B.T.P.S (Body Temperature and Pressure with Saturated water
vapour) thus avoiding the inaccuracies of temperature corrections.
The transducer is insensitive to the effects of condensation and
temperature and avoids the need for individual calibration prior to
performing a test.
Test results may be uploaded to a PC using the optional Spirometry
PC Software (SPCS) and patient details may be downloaded to the
MicroLab.
Stored data may be printed to the integral thermal printer or to an
external USB printer.
The MicroLab utilizes a single patient use disposable mouthpiece
that must be disposed of after use.
The MicroLab provides a suggested interpretation that must be
supported by clinical judgement.
