The combination of the BTL pneumotachograph and the BTL CardioPoint software turns any computer into a highly sophisticated spirometer. Besides common functions, the spirometer allows comparing examination results, configuring final reports or sharing examination data with other computers in the network.
BTL spirometer is well prepared for use with paediatric patients. It features modern 3D encouragement animations, paediatric predictions and calculates parameters such as AEX that are useful particularly when assessing children. BTL CardioPoint software is a versatile and complete solution integrating ECG, stress test, Holter, ABPM and spirometry into one unified platform. Its number of possible diagnostic, graphic and network configurations make it a software that adapts to the user rather than the user having to adapt to the software.
