Renaissance Description

Description
    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 either of two printers available from Nelicor Puritan Bennett, or to most IBM- or Epson-compatible printers. The RS232C port provides the option of sending data to a computer.
   A file-size report includes test results compared to any of three adult or two pediatric predicted normal values, as well as results from pre- and post-medication testing.
Features

  • Two disposable pneumotachs that eliminate cleaning and minimize the risk of cross-infection for both patients and staff

-   The FS200 is used for expiratory testing only (FVC, MVV)

-   The BD250 is used for expiratory and inspiratory testing (FVC, MVV FVL)

  • Choice of synergistic components for a custom system design

  • Rechargeable batteries and hand-held design for true portability

  • Integrated miniature memory card that allows multiple patient storage

  • Audio and visual effort incentive

  • Built-in quality assurance program

  • 8 ˝” x 11” printout

  •  Unique five-year warranty/ exchange program
