. Introduction - English
The respiratory pressure meter is a hand held instrument designed
for rapid assessment of inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength.
The unit can measure the maximum inspiratory and expiratory
mouth pressures, MIP and MEP, and the Sniff Nasal Inspiratory
Pressure, SNIP. The result of each measurement is presented in
units of cmH2O gauge pressure on the liquid crystal display screen.
The unit is easy to operate, battery powered, and is supplied with all
the necessary attachments required for immediate use.
The functionality of the unit may be greatly increased when
connected to a PC running PUMA software. This application has
many advanced features including:
• Real time display of pressure/time curves
• Overlay of successive curves
• Predicted values
• Patient database
• Incentive display
• Manoeuvre quality check
• Manoeuvre variability measurement
