Breathing muscle training spirometer Respifit S - EN

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document discusses the importance of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) as a crucial component of pulmonary rehabilitation. It highlights the benefits of IMT, including improved respiratory muscle function, increased performance, reduced breathlessness, and enhanced quality of life.

Product Overview
The Respifit S is introduced as the first IMT device with an endurance training program that can be tailored to individual patient needs. It is described as compact, portable, and user-friendly, featuring a display that provides graphical feedback on progress.

Indications
The device is suitable for patients with various conditions, including COPD, neuromuscular diseases (such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy), cystic fibrosis, thoracic deformities (like kyphoscoliosis), diaphragmatic dysfunctions, pre- and postoperative thoracic interventions, chronic heart failure, and for use in sports performance.

Training Parameters

Measurement of PI max as a parameter of inspiratory muscle strength, with strength exercises set at 80% of the measured PI max.
Measurement of T(lim) as a parameter of inspiratory muscle endurance, with training volume set for individual endurance exercises.

Training Programs

Strength Training: Patients inhale briefly and forcefully against near-maximal resistance, with visual feedback provided by a weight-lifting graphic on the screen.
Endurance Training: Patients breathe in and out through a handheld device against a preset inspiratory resistance, with a balloon graphic on the screen that must be kept afloat.

Patient Management
A Respifit S PC software is available for patient management, monitoring, and documentation of individual settings and results.

Clinical Studies
Clinical studies are available upon request.

Besser atmen. Besser leben. In zahlr schen Studien konnte gezeigt werden, dass Atemtherapiegerät Inspiratorisches Atemmuskel training (IMT) ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil der pulmonalen Rehabilitation. IMT die Atemmuskel funktion verbessert. Es führt zu einer Steige rung der Leistungsfä higkeit, einer Reduk tion der Atemnot und einer Verbesserung der Lebensqualität. Der Respifit S ist das erste IMT Gerät mit Ausdauertrainingspro gramm, das individuell auf den Patienten und seine Bedürfnisse einstellbar ist. Es ist klein, tragbar und einfach zu bedienen. Das Display bietet ein grafisches Erfolgsfeed back, die Personal Card Einstelldaten.
