Getting home with a new toy or piece of equipment and realizing you forgot the batteries that were definitely not included is an inconvenient annoyance. Accessories and parts are sometimes necessary for the proper use of a product or piece of equipment. Spirometers are no exception and luckily, here at MFI Medical, we carry all the necessary accessories to perform a spirometry test with your MIR Spirometer. 

When it comes to performing a proper spirometry test certain pieces are necessary in order to produce accurate results. Not only do these accessories help in the diagnostic process, they can save you money! Here are the top 3 essential accessories for MIR Spirometers.

Disposable Turbines and Mouthpieces

When providing tests to multiple patients hygiene is of utmost importance. Disposable turbines give you the security of providing a safe hygienic breath test to each individual. The MIR FlowMIR Disposable Turbine is a pre-calibrated cardboard mouthpiece that attaches to most MIR spirometers to provide a simple and accurate test. 

The MIR FlowMIR Disposable Turbine is an inexpensive alternative to a costly reusable flowmeter (If you are looking for a reusable turbine, you can find the MIR Reusable Turbine Flowmeter here). Available in boxes of 10 and 60, each turbine breaks down to costing roughly just a couple dollars. The MIR Disposable Paper Adult Mouthpiece is available for just cents, at 100 per bag. Disposable turbines and mouthpieces are inexpensive and provide a safe patient experience. 

Bacteria/Viral Filters

The MIR Bacterial/Viral Filter is a cost-effective VBMax Pulmonary Function Test filter used to filter viruses and bacteria down to 0.3 microns. Independent laboratory tests have verified that the MIR Bacterial/Viral Filter consistently filters out more than 99.999% of bacteria and 99.99% of viruses.

This versatile filter is also compatible with other spirometers and brands, such as the Breon, Creative Biotech, Clement-Clarke Mini-Wright Peak Flow Meter, Puritan Bennett (400 and 600), Vacu*med, CDX Spiro 850, Futuremed Spirobank, MicroDirect, PK Morgan 232, Riko, Spirometrics, and Vitalograph.

Nose Clips

When performing a spirometry test it’s important the test subject wears a nose clip to keep air from leaking through the nose. Having a nose clip will help measure the total air in the lungs while ensuring none escapes through the nose passage. 

The MIR Plastic Nose Clip is an easy and comfortable accessory necessary for any MIR spirometer. The foam pads provide a pleasant patient experience while ensuring accuracy. These disposable clips are inexpensive and provide a hygienic option to ensure accurate spirometry results.
