WARNING
PATIENT CROSS-CONTAMINATION
If you reuse the EasyOne Flow Tube, contamination from an infected patient
can be deposited on the EasyOne Flow Tube. The contamination from an in-
fected patient can later be passed on to the next patient who is tested.
You cannot clean or disinfect the EasyOne Flow Tube in any way. The
EasyOne Flow Tube is for single-patient use only.
Always replace the EasyOne Flow Tube with a new one between patients or
when performing spirometry on yourself.
Only use an original EasyOne Flow Tube by the manufacturer.
PATIENT HEALTH HAZARD
Performing spirometry can cause an asthma attack or bronchospasm.
If the patient is on medication, check the contraindications for the medica-
tion.
CAUTION
PATIENT HEALTH HAZARD
Pulmonary function tests require maximum effort on the part of the patient and
may lead to dizziness.
Make sure the patient cannot be injured by objects in the vicinity if the patient
falls.
Watch the patient for signs of dizziness and support the patient if necessary.
Do not leave the patient unattended during a test.
The EasyOne Flow Tube is a single-patient-use disposable and hygienically
packaged. Visually check the wrapper of a new EasyOne Flow Tube for defects.
