[Spirometry at home: technology within the patient's reach].

Abstract:

:Spirometry is a basic lung function test useful both for measuring and for monitoring expiratory volume. For many years monitoring has been performed by means of a portable peak flow meter capable of measuring maximal expiratory flow. We present a portable spirometer (Spirotel, Medical International Research, Rome, Italy) capable of transmitting stored lung function data from the patient's home by telephone. The device is easy to use, presents information graphically and numerically, and allows degrees of change in lung function to be monitored on-line. It may be useful for controlling asthma and work-related respiratory diseases.
