Micro Spirometer

The Micro Spirometer is specifically designed for situations where low cost precision respiratory measurement is required. Selected for heart-lung transplant programmes world-wide as well as for major clinical trials. This spirometer has proven (see bib. No.1 below) long-term accuracy and reliability together with the endorsement of a British Design Award.

Low end-expiratory flows are often seen in COPD and Asthmatic patients. Micro Medical has developed a

Gold Standard Transducer to ensure that such measurements are absolutely precise, and many other spirometers cannot offer this.

The Micro Spirometer will measure and display on it’s high visibility screen FEV1 and FVC. Simple to use, lightweight and with over 50,000 units in use around the world, these instruments are the World’s No.1 spirometers.
