Advanced infection protection for patients & medical staff #

The EasyOne Filter solutions provide additional protection for those who may wish to include a filter when performing spirometry with ndd lung function testing products.

ndd’s advanced lung function testing products were originally designed for effortless infection control. ndd breathing mouthpieces (Spirette and FlowTube) are designed to prioritize hygiene and the safe reuse of ndd devices by avoiding cross-contamination among patients. There are no fragile sensor parts to be cleaned, and testing elements that are exposed to the patient’s breath are single-patient use and exchangeable.

EasyOne Filter design allows for lung function testing accuracy and infection control #

The EasyOne Filters were designed (carefully and rigorously) to ensure test accuracy while still offering advanced protection from infection.
