Flexicare is reporting the results of two independent studies that found its Mini-Wright Peak Flow Meter was one of only two peak flow devices (out of 12 devices tested) that met the ISO 23747 measuring “standards of accuracy” and “successfully met all performance evaluation criteria.”1-2
Mini-Wright is the only mechanical Peak Flow Meter that meets all required accuracy standards, according to the company.1,2
Mini-Wright peak flow meters (PFMs) are the ‘Gold Standard’ imperative device for Health Care Professionals to accurately measure, diagnose and manage expiratory flow rate in respiratory conditions such as Asthma and COPD.
It also allows patients to monitor and keep track of their own peak flow readings and seek further help and advice following changes that may mean adjustments are required to their current treatment. A reassurance for patients, enabling them to best-manage their condition.
