Digital peak flow meter with smart app and to help you measure, track, control, and predict your asthma. The proactive way to manage asthma.
The study found that peak flow monitor helped in reducing asthma episodes, heath care visits, and school absences in the studied children. The study's lead author Patricia Burkhart recommends peak flow monitoring for those who do not perceive airway constriction until it is severe....

Readings from a peak flow meter can help you or your child recognize early changes that may be signs of worseningasthma. During an asthma attack, the smooth muscles that surround the airways tighten and cause the airways to narrow. The peak flow meter alerts you to the tightening of the air...
Peak flow meter with questionnaire and mini-spirometer are considered as alternative tools to spirometry for screening of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, the accuracy of these tools together, in clinical settings for disease diagnosis, has not been studied. Two hundred consecu...

A particular case is occupational asthma, where measurements should be done on workdays as well as during weekends and holidays — using a peak flow meter allows the physician to compare the measurements, and helps to state the right diagnosis. The lung function may also be estimated using ...
Peak expiratory flow(PEF) is a simple measure of the maximalflow ratethat can be achieved during forceful expiration following full inspiration.14Although less reliable thanspirometry, PEF measurement aids in asthma diagnosis and monitoring, seen especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, due to restric...
