Description
The Vitalograph copd-6 usb (40450) COPD screening monitor identifies those at risk of COPD at the pre-symptomatic stage to allow early intervention and facilitate better clinical outcomes. It does this by screening out those whose FEV1 is normal therefore do not have COPD and without the risk of false COPD negatives allows the spirometry resources to be focused on those most at risk.
Vitalograph copd-6 usb screening device combines all the features of the Vitalograph copd-6 with the ability to link it to your PC to generate electronic and hard copy reports through Vitalograph Reports software. The session data and device ID can be transferred to Vitalograph Reports or an API developers' kit is available for providers of e-Diary, home hub and off-site care solutions.

- Screens out those whose FEV1 is normal, and who therefore do not have COPD.
- A Cost effective 'Case Selection' so that spirometry resources can be focused on those most likely to be diagnosed with COPD.
- Monitors COPD patients using their 'number', the obstructive index, FEV1 as a percent of predicted.
- Displays FEV1, FEV6, ratio and % predicted, obstructive index, COPD classification and lung age.
- Built-in quality of blow indicator and number of blows in each session.
- Easy to clean flowhead.
- Can be used with hygienic SafeTway mouthpieces or a BVF on multiple people.
- Displays the COPD classification (stage I - IV) to help recognise the need for a change in the patient's management plan.
