Inspiratory Pressure Valve Assembly

MicroRPM

The MicroRPM (Respiratory Pressure Meter) is our portable, non-invasive solution for the accurate assessment and management of the strength of the respiratory muscles. The handheld MicroRPM measures:

• PImax/MIP (Maximal Inspiratory Pressure at the Mouth)
• PEmax/MEP (Maximal Expiratory Pressure at the Mouth)
• SNIP (Sniff Nasal Inspiratory Pressure)

In addition, with the optional PUMA PC software connected via Serial Port, live graphical displays, predicted values, incentive animations, measurements of fatigue (MRPD, MRR and Tau) and much, much more are available.

The MicroRPM is easy to use, operated by a simple three setting slide bar (Off, MIP/MEP, SNIP) and comes in a sturdy carry case. It is battery operated with a clear digital display of the results in CMH2O, using the latest piezo resistive pressure sensing technology for accurate and reliable measurement.

The respiratory muscles perform the vital function of sustaining ventilation, driving the inspiratory and expiratory breathing cycle, determining the ability to breathe.
