The MIR Spirodoc touchscreen spirometer boasts the first ever three-axis oximeter and can be implemented as a stand alone or connected device via an integrated USB port or Bluetooth® 2.1 connection. Available as a spirometer, combined spirometer and oximeter, or as an oximeter, the MIR Spirodoc® has filled an important niche in the field of respiratory diagnostics both within and without the clinical setting.
MIR technology is created by a Red Dot Award winning Italian-based design team. MIR is responsible for a range of advanced and internationally recognised spirometry solutions which have been designed and manufactured for use by medical practitioners and researchers for over twenty years.
Zone Medical currently supplies seven spirometry models: the MIR Minispir 2, MIR Spirolab 4 Desktop, MIR Spirobank 2 Basic, MIR Spirobank 2 Smart, MIR Spirobank 2 Advanced, MIR Smart One Personal Peak Flow Meter and the MIR Spirodoc. This specialised portable model incorporates movement-based saturation sensors which correlates %SaO2 with physical activity. This makes the MIR Spirodoc the ideal solution for Spot Oximetry, 6MWT, Sleep Analysis and 24h Holter assessments in addition to a broad range of airway function tests.
Who is it for?
The MIR Spirodoc spirometer/spirometer with oximeter is successfully used in clinical and non-clinical settings dealing with respiratory diagnostics and therapies, such as pulmonology and cardiology departments, general practitioners and sleep clinics. As either a stand alone or connected device the plethora of available tests allow specialists to gather accurate and specific short- and long-term data. Easily portable, the Spirodoc collects necessary data for the production of 24-hour, weekly, monthly and longer duration curves from the comfort of the patient’s own home.
Medicare Rebates
The MIR Spirodoc spirometer complies with the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) for two items: #11505 and #11506. These recently created or amended items encourage the use of well-performed spirometry in general practice.
Patient Benefits
The MIR Spirodoc spirometer with optional oximeter is simple to implement and features on-screen virtual assistant incentives for adults and paediatric incentive animations with adjustable difficulty levels. In addition, this device can be operated according to three modes – Advanced (for specialist use), Reduced (screening) and Home Care. Home Care consists of a complete touch screen system with eDiary function featuring adjustable questions and automatic answer recording. The Spirodoc spirometer’s ability to simultaneously carry out multiple tests reduces patient consultation time and airway test repetition and allows for long-term, repetitive testing and results recording using personalised patient data and responses. The MIR Spirodoc touchscreen spirometer (with/without oximeter) stores up to 10,000 searchable results at any one time.
Why the MIR Spirdoc spirometer and oximeter?
The combination of pulse oximeter, triaxial accelerometer sensor and detachable spirometer has led to this this multifunctional specialised solution to be a popular choice among a broad group of medical professionals. In combination with WinspiroPRO® software, this small but extremely accurate and innovative device is easy to use, easy to interpret and features more than eighty spirometry and oximetry parameters. The high levels of personalisation in combination with 3D oximetry provide results that correspond directly with individual patients and individual habits.
The MIR Spirodoc® accurately measures the following parameters as a stand-alone or connected device:
Walk testing, Spot testing and Bronchial Challenge assessment are also possible with a PC connection. Real time Flow/Volume loops and Volume/Time curves (via PC) allow for PRE/POST comparison, particularly of use in bronchodilator therapy evaluations.
