Abstract:
:Several filters specific for respiratory function tests have been on the market for several years. Recommended by the manufacturers to avoid contaminating the equipment and thus improve patient safety, these filters require a considerable financial investment. We studied the passage of diluted blood into artificial saliva in a patient model simulating inspiration tests and rapid forced expiration to assess the retention capacity of three filters used for respiratory function tests: Multi SPIRO MI-90016 (MultiSPIRO), PF 30S (Pall Biomedical) and Spirobac (Dar. S.p.A). The mean percentage of passage was 1.48% through the MI-90016 filter, 57.15% through the PF 30 S filter and 70.45% through the Spirobac filter. These findings provide further elements for choosing filters for respiratory function tests. Indeed, despite the manufacturers' commercial arguments, the technical documents provided do not give necessary information on the filtering capacity of the filters on the market. We have observed that two out of the three filters tested do no meet the standards expected by clinicians.
