PB-100 Spirometer System
The Renaissance® Spirometry System is the simple and sophisticated answer to pulmonary function testing. The system features a hand-held spirometer (PB100) that offers true portability.
The patient data memory card (PB130) and the rechargeable batteries allow testing of multiple patients when away from the office or the pulmonary laboratory.
The base station (PB110) is used for downloading patient information to a parallel printer. The RS232C port provides the option of sending data to a computer.
A file-size report includes test results compared to any of four adult to two pediatric predicted normal values, as well as results from pre- and post- medication testing.
