Bacterial filters
| During spirometry testing, patients exhale bacteria
and viruses. Without a filter, these bacteria and viruses are exhaled into
your PFT equipment.
Futuremed’s new, economical bacterial filters
effectively trap 99.99% of bacteria and 99.90% of virus, protecting your
spirometer from expectorated matter. Their low resistance lets you preserve
the accuracy of your spirometry testing. |
 |
|
What makes these filters unique is that each is
packed individually and includes a separate mouthpiece made of soft
plastic. This addition makes the filter durable, more resistant to
moisture, and easier on your patient's lips.
Futuremed filters are available for most pulmonary function testing
instruments.
