Instructions for use:
Before taking a test, you should, if possible, follow some preparation steps.
This includes requirements to exclude smoking, strong coffee drinks and bronchodilators.
The examination is scheduled for the morning on an empty stomach.
You also need to wear loose, unobstructed clothing and empty your bowels and bladder.
During the examination, the patient must maintain a straight body position (testing is carried out in a seated position), but try not to strain too much.
THE PROCEDURE FOR USING THE SPIROMETER LIKE THIS:
The patient sits on a chair, keeping the back straight.
A clip is attached to the nose.
The patient takes a mouthpiece in his mouth and holds it tightly with his lips.
At the command of the doctor, the maximum volume of breath is taken.
Then - a long deep exhalation.
The repetition cycle is a quick deep breath and the same exhale.
Results are reported based on the average between several measurements.
Testing measures a number of things besides lung volume.
If the spirometer is intended to restore the functions of the respiratory system after mechanical ventilation or for breathing exercises, the algorithm of use changes insignificantly.
In this case, it is necessary to do not the maximum possible inhalation and exhalation, but exactly what the doctor prescribes.
Knowing how to use a stress spirometer, you can monitor the expiratory volume yourself or entrust it to your doctor.
