NEW
Spiropalm 6MWT
|
An Innovative New Device for the
Assessment of Exercise Tolerance
|
|
|
Spiropalm 6MWT is a new device that incorporates a spirometer with a pulse oximeter and ventilation monitor.
During a 6 Minute Walk Test, this compact and lightweight combination can be easily worn by a patient on a harness or a belt to collect real-time data. The resulting report provides clinicians with a cohesive and comprehensive means of evaluating 6-MWT results.
Features include:
-
Continuous measurement of SpO2 & HR throughout the walking/exercise period makes the clinician aware of desaturation that may have occured during the 6 minute walk but which was reversed by the end of the test
-
Measurement of Minute Ventilation (VE) and Breathing Pattern during walking
-
Measurement of Breathing Reserve (BR) and evaluation of Ventilatory Limitation
-
Evaluation of Dynamic Hyperinflation with Inspiratory Capacity (IC) measurement
-
Complete spirometry including FVC, Pre/Post FVC comparison, Bronchial challenge test, MVV and SVC
-
Internal memory for storing hundreds of tests
-
Spiropalm Flash Drive (included) provides an alternative for storing reports in pdf format
- Reports are generated by connecting directly to a standard USB printer
- Data Management Software (included) for transferring patient files to a computer and for interfacing with other programs

Spiropalm 6MWT
integrates
Heart Rate and SpO2 monitoring with
the ability to measure ventilation during exercise.
Compact and lightweight
Spiropalm 6MWT integrates a flow meter
seated
in a silicone face mask with a Nonin
pulse oximeter.
A comfortable headgear and
harness allow patients
to wear the
device during the walking test.
Handheld Spirometry
Spiropalm 6MWT is also a diagnostic spirometer
for measuring FVC, Pre-Post
FVC, MVV,
SVC
and
broncho-challenge routines.
Save reports in pdf format
Spirometry reports can be stored as a PDF file
on a Spiropalm USB flash-drive. |
Additional Spirometry Features:
Real-time Graphs - Simultaneous Flow/Volume loop and time/Volume graph in real-time
Bronchial Challenge Testing - Methacholine, cold air, or exercise can be used to induce bronchospasm and to identify and treat asthma.
Pediatric Incentive - "Bubbles" encourages patients to perform
tests
properly so you have optimal results quickly and easily.
Quality
Control Messages - Software-driven messages help the
technician recognize testing errors and validate a maneuver's technical quality.
Alphanumeric Keyboard - Reports can
be personalized with patient data, notes, and a header.
Choice of Prediction Standards - Spiropalm is programmed with a choice of predicted normals, including NHANESIII, Knudson, ITS, Crapo, and other
predicted sets.
Economical - Cost effective way to perform diagnostic spirometry using your choice of mouthpiece or bacterial filter.
Choice of Languages - Spiropalm is available in English, Spanish, French, Portugese, Italian, German, Dutch, Chinese (Mandarin), Korean, and Turkish.
Accurate
- Spiropalm meets or
exceeds ATS standards for accuracy. Its unique sensor design is
not affected by environmental changes. The built-in temperature sensor and
the ability to make BTPS corrections ensure that measurements are exact
for a wide range of flows, with low resistance.
