Vitalograph - Lung Age Respiratory Monitor

Product Properties

The Vitalograph Lung Age monitor measures FEV1 and compares it with predicted normal values to calculate a smoker or ex-smokers ‘lung age’.

A high lung age in relation to the subject’s chronological age can provide a clearer presentation of the negative impact of continued smoking on lung function and encourage smoking cessation.

Identification of a reduction in FEV1 provides an early warning of the damage already suffered by the lungs at the pre-symptomatic stage, when smoking cessation is most effective. Reduced FEV1 is a key indicator of COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), often caused by smoking.

• Measures FEV1 and displays FEV1 as a % of predicted value.
• Displays lung age to help illustrate the impact of smoking on the subject’s lungs.
• Large, easy to read display.
• Electronic record – no need for record cards.
