Airlife Spirometer
Posted By Adam Pick On November 4, 2007 @ 2:40 am In Heart Surgery Recovery | No Comments
I just received an interesting question from Robert about incentive spirometers. The question reads, “What kind of incentive spirometer did you use in the hospital? Was it an Airlife Spirometer?”
Given my heavy use of the incentive spirometer in the intensive care unit and at home (see picture) following my Ross Procedure (aortic, pulmonary valve replacements) [1], I should know the answer to this question.

However, I have to admit, I never looked at the brand of my incentive spirometer. Now, I’m curious. So, I just did some web surfing to find out if an Airlife Spirometer was the brand of spirometer that helped with through my pneumothorax.
Well… I just completed my research via Google [2]. And, the answer to the questions is, “Yes. I used an Airlife Incentive Spirometer”.

If you would like to see another image of spirometer [3] or learn incentive spirometer directions [4], please click either of these links.
I hope this helps you understand more about Airlife Spirometers!
Keep on tickin!
