The ScoutTube is a disposable breathing tube for lung function measurement in measuring systems with ultrasound sensor.The ScoutTube is intended for use with the spirometers SpiroScout, SpiroScout SP and SpiroScout SP plus.Operating mode / Physical Principle:The ScoutTube is a disposable breathing tube for lung function measurement in measuring systems with ultrasound sensor, namely spirometers SpiroScout, SpiroScout SP and SpiroScout SP plus. The ScoutTube bundles and directs the air exhaled by the patient past the ultrasound sensor of the spirometer. The values determined in the process are sent to a software-supported diagnostic system for evaluation. A diagnosis can then be made by the specialist staff on the basis of the measurement results.
A device designed to be inserted into a patient's mouth to facilitate access to the respiratory system. It is typically a small rigid or semi-rigid plastic hollow device with a shape and structure that provides an appropriate gastight seal (i.e., with a patient's lips) and prevents collapse. It is typically attached, either directly or through other tubes/adaptors, to diagnostic and/or therapeutic respiratory devices (e.g., ventilator, inhaler, incentive spirometer, aerosol equipment, breath analyser, breath collector). This is a single-use device.
