A diagnostic spirometer for professional use measures lung function by assessing airflow and volume parameters like forced expiratory volume (FEV) and peak expiratory flow (PEF). Clinicians rely on these devices to diagnose and monitor chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma, COPD, or bronchitis, as well as certain heart-related disorders.
These devices are typically regulated as medical instruments, often requiring compliance with safety and performance standards before market entry. They are designed for clinical settings and may integrate with software for data analysis, though regulations vary by jurisdiction and are applied per device.
