The copd-6 Vitalograph is an electronic COPD screening device that ascertains the obstruction index and the FEV1/FEV6 ratio, thereby detecting any potential COPD diseases specifically and safely. This screening procedure requires no time-consuming, and therefore costly, full spirometry tests at a medical practice.
The use of Vitalograph mouthpieces ensures that it can be used safely by a number of patients (for example, in a hospital or in a medical practice), without the risk of cross-infection.
• Simple and fast screening of COPD risk groups
• Measurement of all COPD relevant parameters
• COPD classification (stage I-IV) according to GOLD Guidelines
• Lung age
• Display of the obstruction indexes according to the COPD Consortium criteria
• Perfectly suited for multiple-patient use
• Easy to clean thanks to the removable measuring head
• Low subsequent costs thanks to standard AAA batteries
• Customization possible depending on quantity
Undiagnosed COPD concerns millions of people throughout the world; in Germany alone, around 15% of people over the age of 40 are affected, and for those over 70 the figure is almost 30%. But only one in two COPD sufferers has been diagnosed and given effective treatment (with medication) (Source: Global BOLD Study).
At the moment, COPD is in fourth place statistically as cause of death. The main cause of COPD is smoking.
