What is a "spirometer"?
A spirometer is a medical device used to measure lung function and capacity. It works by measuring how much air a person can inhale, exhale, and how quickly they can exhale. This information helps healthcare providers diagnose and monitor conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory diseases. Spirometers are essential tools in respiratory testing, providing precise data that helps in treatment planning and evaluating the effectiveness of therapies aimed at improving lung function.
