Overview:

Peak flow meters measure a patient's peak expiratory flow rate. With regular use, Personal Best may help patients better communicate their condition to their doctor so that he or she can make informed decisions and provide optimal care.

Personal Best® Full Range Peak Flow Meter

Wherever Personal Best goes—in the hospital, office, or home—it sets a new standard for convenience, compliance, and confidence.

 
 

And Personal Best goes anywhere. . .easily.

With a lightweight, self-contained, portable design that puts peak flow monitoring at your fingertips—or your patients’—all day long.

Plus, a rugged, sterilizible construction that helps it stand up to the roughest use day after day.

Personal Best encourages compliance with its comfortable oval mouthpiece and easy-to-use built-in handle.  And it improves patient communication with its high-legibility scale and NAEPP-endorsed three-zone management system.

Available in both full range (60 – 810 l/min) and low range (50 – 390 l/min).

 

Features:

Personal Best® Full Range Peak Flow Meter

Personal Best®’s comfortable oval mouthpiece and easy-to-use built-in handle encourage compliance.

² Handle
Handle converts into a carrying case for ultimate portability and protection.

 

² Zones
Built-in flexible three-zone management system and easy-to-read numbers. The integrated three-zone asthma management system helps patients comply with treatment regimens. The color-coded indicators (located to the right of the scale) can be adjusted to delineate a patient's green, yellow, and red zones based on personal best peak flow.

 

² Ranges
Available in Full (60-810 L/min) and Low (50-390 L/min) ranges.

 

² Mouthpiece
Safety mouthpieces reduce the risk of cross-contamination during multi-patient screening, and the one-way valve prevents patients from inadvertently breathing in air through their meters during peak expiratory flow rate testing.

 

² Life Span
Accuracy and reproducibility assured for a minimum of two years.

 

² Quality Assurance
100% of Personal Best units are quality-control inspected at the factory before shipment.
