Description
SPECIFICATIONS:
The CA-MI PulmoGain is a medical-grade, single-patient incentive spirometer and lung exerciser engineered to train and improve respiratory function through deep, sustained inspiration. Widely utilized in pulmonary rehabilitation, post-operative care, and chronic illness management, it helps patients expand their lung capacity, strengthen respiratory muscles, and prevent clinical complications like atelectasis (lung collapse). It is an essential, cost-effective rehabilitation tool for hospitals, frail care centers, and physiotherapy practices across South Africa.
Key Features
- Calibrated Triple-Chamber Design: Features three independent, interconnected chambers with precisely graduated flow rates of 600, 900, and 1200 cc/sec.
- Color-Coded Visual Incentive: Houses three distinct, lightweight spheres (one in each chamber) that rise dynamically during a deep inhalation. This offers immediate, encouraging visual feedback to both patients and clinical teams tracking therapy progress.
- Hygienic Fully Disassemble Body: Unlike standard sealed lung exercisers, the PulmoGain can be completely broken down to clean and sanitize every internal compartment. This ensures optimal hygiene during regular therapeutic use.
- Integrated External Air Filter: Equipped with an easily accessible, replaceable air intake filter to ensure that the patient inhales only clean, filtered air during daily exercises.
- Safe, Non-Toxic Composition: Manufactured strictly from shock-resistant, high-quality transparent plastic that is 100% PVC-free and non-toxic.
- Ergonomic Detachable Interface: Includes a highly flexible, comfortable EVA corrugated extension connection tube and a smooth polypropylene (PP) mouthpiece that can be removed for quick washing.
Primary Clinical Applications
- Post-Operative Recovery: Encourages deep breathing exercises for patients facing long stays in bed after major thoracic or abdominal surgeries.
- Chronic Condition Management: Aids in minimizing symptoms, reducing dyspnoea (shortness of breath), and restoring breathing patterns for patients affected by COPD, Asthma, Bronchitis, and Emphysema.
- Pneumonia & Infection Rehabilitation: Helps clear trapped mucus and expand compromised lung tissue following severe respiratory illnesses.
