Spirostik Blueflow

Spirostik Blueflow uses the Blueflow single-patient-use flow sensor, eliminating cross-contamination risks. Unlike traditional sensors of other manufacturers, this design reduces dead space and flow resistance, at the same time improving testing efficiency. The ergonomic „roll-in“ handle allows users to insert and remove the Blueflow sensor without direct contact, ensuring a cleaner environment. By eliminating bacterial and viral filters, reducing dead space, and minimizing flow resistance, Spirostik Blueflow also reduces CO₂ rebreathing, benefitting pediatric and compromised patients.

The accuracy of Spirostik Blueflow has been validated and confirmed against ATS waveforms, demonstrating its reliability as a diagnostic spirometer. Its accuracy is warranted through continuous quality control during production, ensuring proper calibration theoretically even without the need for a calibration syringe. Accuracy can be further enhanced by adding the USB-based environmental module, Ambistik. Ambistik continuously monitors ambient conditions such as temperature, pressure, and humidity, ensuring accurate BTPS compensationat all times, eliminating the need for users to manually input these values.

Spirostik Blueflow offers advanced Spirometry measurements, including Slow Vital Capacity (SVC), Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), and Maximum Voluntary Ventilation (MVV), in compliance with ATS/ERS guidelines. It automatically calculates multiple parameters such as SVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF, IC, ERV, and MEF25-75.

Thanks to its compact design and simple USB connection, any PC running the BLUE CHERRY® software suite can easily transform into a Spirometer by just plugging the Spirostik Blueflow into an USB port. This makes the Spirostik Blueflow ideal for use in different rooms or even in mobile applications, such as community screenings. Supplied in a durable carrying case, everything is kept secure and organized during transport.

Spirostik Blueflow operates under the powerful BLUE CHERRY® diagnostic software platform and can be integrated with other products from Geratherm Respiratory to create a complete suite of cardiopulmonary diagnostic testing tools.

BLUE CHERRY® is fully scalable, ranging from simple single workstation setups to complex network solutions, and can be customized to meet a wide variety of needs — from daily medical practice to clinical research.

The software integrates quality control according to ATS/ERS guidelines and includes Spirometry interpretation algorithms along with proprietary graphics. It supports the latest GLI-predicted values (2012 and 2017) and Z-Scores and offers long-term test trending, allowing for the overlay of multiple tests.

Reports are fully customizable.

User accounts with different access levels are available, and workflows are optimized through interfaces with HL7 or GDT, enabling seamless integration with existing hospital systems. BLUE CHERRY® also provides powerful reporting capabilities, including pdf export, and supports complex and secure network installations with a central SQL database.
