If a spirolab user is a person who is incapable of looking after him or herself, the device must be used under the supervision and responsibility of the person who is legally in charge of that person. -
Page 5: Important Safety Warnings
WARNING When the spirolab device is used as an oximeter with limited alarm settings, the SpO2 and Pulse Rate shown on the display should be checked frequently. -
Page 6: Risk Of Cross Contamination
939008 These sensors require the use of the extension cable item code 919200 (length 1.5 m) for connection with the spirolab device. Prolonged use of a sensor or the patient's condition may mean that the location of the sensor has to be changed periodically. Change the position of sensors every 4 hours. -
Page 7: Usb Connection Cable
Do not use cables that appear to be or are damaged. If a new cable is required, contact your local distributor. Use only cables supplied by MIR, specifically designed to be used with Spirolab. The use of other types of cables can lead to inaccurate measurements. -
Page 8: Warnings For Use In Electromagnetic Environments
Keep these devices at a minimum distance of 30 centimeters. If it is necessary to use it at shorter distances, Spirolab and the other devices must be kept under observation to verify that they work normally. -
Page 9: Fcc Certification Label
1.3.2 FCC certification label Spirolab complies with section 15 of the FCC standards. Operation of the device is subject to the following conditions: (1) This device must not cause harmful interference (2) This device can be subjected to all types of interference, including those which may cause undesired effects Any modifications made without the express approval of this company may compromise the use of the device by the user. -
Page 10: Product Description
Spirolab is intended for use by medical specialists and it provides them with a powerful but compact tool that can process about 30 functional parameters. The device also provides a pharmacodynamic response, i.e. the % comparison of spirometric data measured before and after (PRE/POST) administration of a drug for bronchial provocation or bronchodilation. - Page 11 An individual patient’s clinical history values van vary significantly from normality values that always refer to a “healthy” subject. Spirolab can be connected to a PC or another computerised system. The spirometric data from every test is stored in the device and can be transferred to a PC and displayed (flow/volume curves, spirometric parameters, oximetric parameters optional).

Page 27: Online Mode (Connected To A Pc)
When the device is connected to a PC, it cannot be directly operated. The settings on the PC are transferred to the device and remain active any other time you use the device directly. For example, if you use spirolab connected to the PC and you set a particular turbine (disposable or reusable), this will remain the default turbine any other time you use the device remotely, until the device is restarted. -
Page 28: Fvc Test
Remember that for accurate spirometry results, it is essential that all the air is expelled from the lungs. The test can be repeated as often as required without the mouthpiece having to be removed from the mouth. In this case, the spirolab will automatically recognise the longer cycle (longer FVC+FEV1) and present the relative readings. -

Page 32: Performing Oximetry
MIR does not recommend any particular sensor; the decision is left to the doctor's discretion. During oximetry tests, the spirolab device cannot be turned off. To turn it off, you have to interrupt an on-going test. This system prevents unwanted interruptions that might compromise the reliability of data. -

The first few seconds of a test are used for finding the strongest signal; once this has been found, the timer resets itself and the spirolab starts saving data. -
Page 34: Data Transmission
USB port technology. Data transmission via Bluetooth Spirolab can be connected as a "slave device" to any other "master device”. Therefore, you can connect spirolab to a PC or a mobile phone and control it using special applications. -
Page 35: Printing Data
Cleaning and checking reusable turbines The volume and flow turbine sensors usable with spirolab are of two types: disposable and reusable. These guarantee great accuracy and have the added benefit of not needing to be periodically calibrated. A simple clean before every use will ensure that the turbine keeps working as it should (only for reusable turbines). -

Checking correct turbine function • Turn the spirolab on and act as if you wanted to perform a spirometry test • Take the MiniFlowmeter in one hand and move it slowly from right to left and vice versa so that air passes through the turbine, •... -
Page 37: Recharging The Battery Pack
To charge the battery pack, only use the charger supplied by the manufacturer. When the spirolab device is turned on, an icon shows the condition of the battery in the top right hand corner: The maximum charge level is reached when the symbol is completely green. -
Page 38: Trouble Shooting And Solutions
WARNING Before contacting the service centre, if possible, download the device archive to the PC using the MIR Spiro program. This is necessary as the data may be lost during repair activities and also to protect the patient's privacy, as neither the manufacturer nor authorised personnel are allowed to see such data. -
