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.
² Warranty
Personal Best® is backed by a one-year
unconditional warranty. Any unit performing
unsatisfactorily for any reason during this period
will be replaced free of charge by Respironics.
