<p>The <a href="http://www.axis-shielduk.com/home/near%20patient/spirometry/About%20Datospir%20Micro.html">Datospir Micro </a>range of small portable <a href="http://www.axis-shielduk.com/home/near%20patient/spirometry/Introduction%20to%20spirometry.html">spirometers</a> has the latest technological advances. There are 3 different models available, tailored to the needs of the user. The equipment has different configurations for use both in clinical mode and at home. Connectivity is via a USB port or Bluetooth technologies. They operate with a large number of parameters related to FVC, VC and MVV, and have a pulse oximetry (SpO2) option. There is an acoustic incentive for children and a data base of up to 1000 tests. Finally, two of the models are fitted with graphic touch screens (PDA type), making them easy to use and among the most advanced <a href="http://www.axis-shielduk.com/home/near%20patient/spirometry/Introduction%20to%20spirometry.html">spirometers</a> on the market.</p>
