The PASPORT Spirometer allows students to collect accurate air-flow data from a pulmonary
function test (PFT). The subject breathes through a sanitary, single-use mouthpiece as data is
recorded and displayed on your computer or PASPORT interface. From the graphed data
students can measure tidal volume, forced expiratory volume, and other important lung
volumes and capacities.

Summary
Spirometer How it works 2 ® H o w i t w o r k s When the test subject breathes through the mouthpiece, a screen in the mouthpiece induces a minute resistance to the air flow. This resistance leads to a pressure differential across the screen that is measured via two air lines that lead to a differen...
Model No. PS-2152 Data Collection 3 ® Pulmonary Function Test Procedure 1. Use a nose clip or have the test subject hold his or her nose to ensure that all breathing is done through the mouth. 2. Hold the mouthpiece of the Spirometer stationary and away from air currents (including expired air). Sta...
