Alcohol breath analyser

An alcohol breath analyser is a handheld device used to measure and record the alcohol content in a person’s breath at the bedside or point-of-care. Clinically, these instruments help assess alcohol intoxication levels, support sobriety testing, and aid in monitoring patients who may have consumed alcohol, such as in emergency or post-operative settings.

These devices are typically regulated as medical instruments, often requiring compliance with safety and performance standards to ensure accurate readings. They are commonly supplied as standalone units, designed for single-use or reusable applications depending on the model, and may be subject to specific labeling and calibration requirements in different regions.
