The MicroRPM (Respiratory Pressure Meter) brings together the measurements of Maximum Inspiratory and Expiratory Mouth Pressures (MIP/MEP) with Sniff Nasal Inspiratory Pressure (SNIP) in one instrument. These simple non-invasive tests of respiratory muscle strength are essential in monitoring patients with COPD who are undergoing a program of lung rehabilitation and are also valuable in the detection of other diseases affecting the function of the respiratory muscles. Simple and easy to use, the pocket-sized, battery operated MicroRPM features a clear digital display of the results in cmH2O and comes complete with all accessories in a sturdy carrying case. Also offered as an optional extra with MicroRPM is Puma, a comprehensive analysis and database software package.

Features:

• Combined mouth and nasal pressure measurements
• Clear digital display of the results
• Small, portable and lightweight
• Latest piezo resistive pressure sensing technology
• Optional Puma, PC software package
• Battery operated and complete with all accessories in a sturdy carrying case
• Easy to use and competitively priced

Puma - Respiratory Pressure Database and Analysis Software

Puma is an optional 32 bit software package (which is compatible with all the latest Windows operating systems) for displaying the pressure wave forms developed during testing with the MicroRPM. Additionally the measurements of the Maximal Rate of Pressure Development (MRPD) and Maximal Rate of Relaxation (MRR) can be made.
