Used - Good MICRO MEDICAL MicroLoop

FREE SHIPPING with NEW Battery
This spirometer was successfully calibrated by the seller immediately prior to this listing using a 3 L air syringe (for sale separately) designed for respiratory device calibration. The MicroLoop has no apparent issues. The battery retained its charge for four months while on our inventory shelf. At the buyers direction we will replace this battery with a new one or include a new battery in the package. Included is everything seen in the ad pictures plus a cradle/PC USB cable and a warranty that covers the devices passing a biomedical inspection after delivery. Micro Direct offers a PDF version of the MicroLoop operating manual at no charge at the MDSpiro.com website. This is a current product distributed worldwide by UK based Micro Direct. At the time of this units production Micro Direct was a subsidiary of CareFusion. Currrently Cardinal Health appears to own Micro Direct.

Suited to measuring the very low flow rates of patients with COPD
The MicroLoop is a battery operated portable spirometer with the unique combination of ease of use and sophistication. Ease of use is assured through the use of context sensitive help screens, accessed at a touch of a button, that explain every MicroLoop feature. The MicroLoop is supplied with a cradle that may be connected with the USB cables supplied, to either a PC or a printer. The cradle also connects to the mains adapter so that the MicroLoop’s batteries may be charged while it is placed in the cradle. The blue lights on the cradle indicate that it is being powered either by a PC connection or by the mains adapter. When either of these sources of power is connected to the cradle, it is ready to charge your MicroLoop. The MicroLoop utilizes a single patient use disposable mouthpiece or filter that must be disposed of after use.
The MicroLoop uses a Digital Volume Transducer, an extremely stable form of volume transducer, which measures expired air directly at B.T.P.S (Body Temperature and Pressure with Saturated water vapor) thus avoiding the inaccuracies of temperature corrections. The transducer is insensitive to the effects of condensation and temperature and avoids the need for individual calibration prior to performing a test. Test results may be uploaded to a PC using Spirometry PC Software and patient details may be downloaded to the MicroLoop.
The MicroLoop spirometer is intended for prescription use only, to measure the maximal volume and flow of air that can be moved in and out of a patient’s lungs. The system is intended for use with pediatric (4 to 17 years of age) and adult (18 to 99 years of age) patients in hospitals, physician offices, laboratories and occupational health testing environments.
