HomeVitalograph copd-6
For simple, fast & accurate COPD screening
The Vitalograph copd-6 offers fast, simple and effective screening of those at risk for COPD.
The dual zone indicators provide an instant indication of both the obstructive index and the COPD classification. Using NHANESIII predicted values, the copd-6 measures and displays FEV1, FEV6, FEV1/FEV6 and percent of predicted.
The copd-6 identifies those at risk of COPD at the pre-symptomatic stage to allow early medical intervention and facilitate better clinical outcomes.
This pioneering device screens out those whose FEV1 is normal, and who therefore, do not have COPD,without the risk of false COPD negatives, allowing spirometry resources to be focused on those most at risk.
