3. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

Follow these steps for accurate spirometry measurements.

3.1 Preparing for a Test

1. Kun żgur li l-apparat ikun mixgħul u kompletament iċċarġjat.
2. Attach a new, clean disposable mouthpiece to the spirometer's sensor opening.
3. Oqgħod bilqiegħda dritt f'pożizzjoni komda.
4. Ensure there are no obstructions to breathing.

3.2 Performing a Spirometry Test

The device will guide you through the test. Typically, a spirometry test involves the following steps:

1. Inhale Deeply: Take the deepest breath you can, filling your lungs completely.
2. Seal Lips Around Mouthpiece: Place the mouthpiece in your mouth and seal your lips tightly around it.
3. Exhale Forcefully and Completely: Blow out as hard and as fast as you can until your lungs are completely empty. Continue exhaling for at least 6 seconds, or until the device indicates completion.
4. Review Riżultati: The measured parameters will be displayed on the LCD screen immediately after the test.
