Vitalograph myPEF Peak Flow Meter

The web-enabled myPEF is supplied with a unique ID card allowing users access to a secure website where they can enter their PEF readings. This eliminates the need for paper records and supports data accuracy. Data trending and customised colour zones can provide pre-symptomatic indications of potential asthma exacerbations. It has easy-to-read graphical data display and report generation featuring plotting, trending and time stamping functions. Clinicians can be granted access to view patients’ PEF results online for reliable, cost-effective remote monitoring. Ergonomically designed for maximum comfort and ease of use.

Vitalograph asma-1 Digital Peak Flow Meter
Vitalograph

Vitalograph asma-1 Digital Peak Flow Meter

A simple respiratory monitor that measures PEF and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1).
FEV1 has less diurnal variability and is less effort dependent than PEF, so is a valuable measure. Suitable for home or clinic use, the device can be integrated with a smartphone or tablet for ePRO data collection. It offers greater accuracy than mechanical peak flow meters and eliminates the need for paper record cards.
It automatically stores best readings and displays each reading as a percentage of the personal best for both PEF and FEV1. The PEF and FEV1 zones can be personalised and 600 test sessions can be saved.
It has a large easy-to-read display and uses AAA batteries. It has an easy to clean mouthpiece and flowhead and can be used in conjunction with Vitalograph SafeTway mouthpieces in a clinic.
