A spirometer is a device that measures the amount of air that enters and exits the lungs while breathing to determine lung capacity. In a spirometer test, the patient inhales deeply into a spirometer tube connected to a reader, which measures and records the lungs' air capacity. Any variation from the typical spirometer readings shows that the lungs are dysfunctional. Cystic fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, asthma, bronchiectasis, and other chronic lung illnesses can all be diagnosed with a spirometer.
A spirometer can also aid in practicing breathing exercises in case of chronic pulmonary diseases and prevent accumulation of mucus and fluid inside the lungs. Additionally, a spirometer can also be used to assess lung function prior to a surgery such as bariatric surgery, knee replacement surgery, and others.
The global spirometer market is estimated to be valued at US$ 958.0 million in 2021 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.5% over the forecast period (2021-2028).
