Product Review: Review of Spirometry with FEV1
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using a peak flow meter for years and this gives better and more information than any I've used. I also bought the Peak Flow/FEV1 Analyzer Software with USB Cable that works with it and it gives beautiful graphs and excellent information to pass on to my physician. Even without the software, though, the Spritometer has a memory and makes it much easier for me to keep track of my fluctuations.

There is so much variability in the readings that it's more likely indicating your technique in the blow than your condition that day.Product Review: Simple to use, easy to understand
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are interested in taking control of your asthma, this is really a great tool.
This monitor is very easy to use and gives a clear reading of lung function. I find it way better than the old manual ones. The ease of use has made it easy to become part of my day. I check my numbers just after taking my vitamin in the morning. Getting a steady look at lung flow has helped me to minnimize my use of medicine, but still get advanced warning of when to start using my inhaled steriods. My doctor thought it was great when I took it in as well.

This is my first Peak Flow Meter. I liked the design and features amazon listed and thought I would try it out. Everything about it holds true, its small enough to toss in a purse or bag, and easy enough to take out and use at any time. It stores your readings which is quite handy. Great device for anyone who wishes to monitor there peak flow rate.
On a seperate note for allergies and peak flows:
For anyone with allergies, this is a nice product as well. I have a latex allegy and a peak flow reader was recommened to me by my allergist. When using it after say, going into a store, I can tell if there were any hidden latex allergins that were not visable. Balloons and such are visable, however perhaps a bunch of ballons were there a few minutes before I set foot in the store. I would not know, but my asthma would kick in. Sometimes its delayed But the peak flow meter would give me a lower reading byt about 15%. So I would know in advance and be able to prepare for a possible reaction, etc. Just an example for anyone out there with similar allergies. Its a great way to check for possible attacks and being small and light, this peak flow is recommended!
Product Review: Works fine and it's fun
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the first time i've used one of these and it's fun..i just 'blow' into it and get a PEF reading, e.g. 550 and a FEV1 reading, e.g. 3.3..as of yet i'm not into studying all the terms and values but i intend to take readings to see if they're 'consistent' and don't go down, how the readings are when i get up, after i eat, walk etc. ... i do admit i don't clean 'after each' use as suggested but i keep an eye on it to see if it looks like it needs cleaning and probably will do so once a week or so..i wipe the mouthpiece each time , though..nifty little gadget and as important with me to play with as a blood pressure cuff.
