- Easy to use and competitively priced
The MicroRPM (Respiratory Pressure Meter) brings together the measurements of Maximum Inspiratory and Expiratory Mouth Pressures (MIP/ MEP) with Sniff Nasal Inspiratory Pressure (SNIP) in one instrument.
These simple non-invasive tests of respiratory muscle strength are essential in monitoring patients with COPD who are undergoing a program of lung rehabilitation and are also valuable in the detection of other diseases affecting the function of the respiratory muscles.
Simple and easy to use, the pocket sized, battery operated MicroRPM features a clear digital display of the results in cmH2O and comes complete with all accessories in a sturdy carrying case.
The free downloadable PUMA is an optional 32 bit PC software for displaying the pressure wave forms developed during testing with the MicroRPM. Additionally the measurements of the Maximal Rate of Pressure Development (MRPD) and Maximal Rate of Relaxation (MRR) can be made. An animated incentive ensures maximal cooperation from children and test quality assurance measures encourage correct test technique. With PUMA, the printout format is also selectable and previous pressure curves can be overlayed. Different sets of
predicted normal values are also included.
