Product catalog summary
Overview of the Ambulatory Lung Diagnostic System (ALDS)
The ALDS is an innovative two-in-one device designed for performing both Airway Oscillometry and Forced Spirometry. It utilizes a cloud-based algorithm to analyze test results, integrating clinical outcome parameters with patient history to provide a clear physiological interpretation of lung function for healthcare providers. The system is engineered for mobility, durability, and efficiency, supporting high patient throughput with each test taking only a few minutes.
Diagnostic Techniques
  • Airway Oscillometry: This non-invasive technique measures the mechanical impedance of the lungs, combining respiratory resistance and reactance. The patient breathes normally through the device, which delivers gentle pressure oscillations to the lungs. The system calculates frequency-dependent impedance parameters, offering insights into lung mechanics without forced breathing.
  • Forced Spirometry: This technique measures airflow during a forced breathing maneuver. The patient takes a deep breath and exhales forcefully through the device. The system captures airflow and calculates flow and volume parameters, providing insights into pulmonary function.
Clinical Pathway and Recommendations
The ALDS aids in identifying obstructive and restrictive patterns, assisting clinicians in detecting respiratory limitations. It is recommended to measure post-spirometry if COPD is suspected and consider treatment or referral based on test results. For asthma suspicion, a provocation test is advised.
Technical Standards and Specifications
The document outlines technical and clinical parameters, emphasizing the importance of measuring airway resistance and response to bronchodilators in COPD diagnosis. The device specifications ensure reliable and efficient operation.

ALDS Product-1

Ambulatory Lung Diagnostic System LOTHAR MEDICAL Ambulatory Lung Diagnostic System The Ambulatory Lung Diagnostic System (ALDS) is a two-in-one device designed to perform both Airway Oscillometry and Forced Spirometry. This innovative system leverages a cloud-based algorithm to analyze test results, integrating clinical outcome parameters with patient history to deliver a clear physiological interpretation of lung function for healthcare providers. The system algorithm identifies obstructive and restrictive patterns, helping clinicians detect and understand corresponding respiratory limitations. Engineered for mobility, durability, and efficiency, the ALDS supports high patient throughput with each test typically taking just a few minutes. By combining both diagnostic methods in daily diagnostic routines, the ALDS offers a comprehensive, multidimensional assessment of lung function, enhancing pulmonary diagnostics. Airway Oscillometry Ambulatory Lung Diagnostic Airway Oscillometry is a simple, non-invasive technique that measures the mechanical impedance of the lungs - a combination of respiratory resistance (airway openness) and reactance (elasticity and inertance of the airways). During the test, the patient breathes normally and calmly through the ALDS device. While doing so, the system delivers gentle pressure oscillation to the lung. These sound waves travel through the airways, and the device captures the resulting pressure and airflow at the mouth. The system then calculates clinically relevant, frequencydependent impedance parameters, providing valuable insights into lung mechanics without requiring forced breathing maneuvers. Forced Spirometry Forced Spirometry is a diagnostic technique used to measure airflow during a forced breathing maneuver. During this test, the patient performs a spirometry maneuver - taking a deep breath and then exhaling forcefully through the ALDS device. The system captures the airflow and calculates clinically relevant flow and volume parameters, offering valuable insights into the patient’s pulmonary function.
