Overview
The Vitalograph copd-6™ identifies those at risk of COPD at the pre-symptomatic stage. The device screens out those whose FEV1 is normal. The copd-6 screener allows early medical intervention and facilitates better clinical outcomes.
Monitors COPD patients using their 'number', the obstructive index which is based on a percent of predicted.
Facilitates 'case selection' so that spirometry can be focused on those likely to be diagnosed with COPD.
Screens out anyone with normal FEV1 without the risk of false COPD negatives.
Displays FEV1, FEV6, ratio and % predicted, obstructive index, COPD classification and lung age.
Displays the GOLD COPD classification (stage I - IV) to help recognize the need for a change in the patient's management plan.
Built-in quality of blow indicator.

FAQs
Can I use a Bacterial Viral Filter (BVF) with the copd-6?
AddA BVF is recommended to use if the copd-6 is intended for in clinic multi-subject use. The plastic mouthpiece supplied with the device can be used where the device is intended for single-subject use. For subject groups with excessive sputum production, a BVF can be used to protect the device flowhead from exhaled particulate matter where this may be a concern.
What does the quality of blow indicator detect?
AddThe (!) appears after a blow if; Vext (extrapolated volume) is > 5% or 100mL of FEV6 or a cough is detected in the 1st second.
How do you clean the copd-6?
AddIf a new BVF is used for every test subject and the copd-6 is stored in a clean, dust free environment, then the device should require only surface cleaning using a 70% isopropyl alcohol wipe. If you suspect that the device flowhead has become contaminated, refer to the 4000 Series Cleaning Instructions.
Can the copd-6 connect with my phone/tablet?
AddNo, but results can be entered manually.
To connect to a supported mobile App, you require the lung monitor BT Smart. For more details talk to us.
