A few weeks ago, I bought an Astra 100 spirometer- from Medical Device Depot.

I wanted a spirometer that doctors use in their offices and that prints out all the data of a pulmonary function test.

Here is the machine that I own.

Just remember to always check your numbers.:-)

I love my new Astra 100 spirometer. I cannot wait to see my pulmonary doctor in a few days to show him my printed results.

The print out displays the following: Fev1, FVC, Fev1/FVC PEP FEV6, FEV1.FVC6 including a loop.

The Astra 100 matches my numbers to the clinic's machine.

I have never been a great PFT taker so this machine will help me because it coaches you on how to take a better test. There are comments that tell you to blow out longer or faster. Sometimes my report says that I hesitate.

Here is a photo of what the Astra 100 looks like
