The System
The Welch Allyn PCS Spirometer system consists of a flow sensor that is connected to a PC through the serial port (RS-232). The Welch Allyn PCS Spirometer Software is compatible with almost all personal computer hardware and the system is attractively and ergonomically designed.
Testing
During a spirometry test, the Welch Allyn PCS Spirometer graphically displays volume-time and/or flow-volume graphs allowing for verification and reproductibility of tests. A variety of measurements are calaculated in FVC, SVC and MVV modes and can be compared to a selected reference table.
Pre-installed reference tables include: ECCS, Knudson, Kory, Quanjer, Schoenberg and Zapletal. Additional reference tables can be easily added. Tags for bronchodilator and/or bronchoprovocation status are available to test results. Hard-copy printouts can be produced directly on any Windows® compatible printer, or by using a fax/modem on a remote fax. The Welch Allyn PCS Spirometer stores all data from every patient's session, ideal for delayed review, printing or inter-session comparison.
