What is the TriFlo Inspiratory Exerciser by Able?
The Able TriFlo Breathing Exerciser is a deep breathing spirometer used to help exercise and strengthen the function of the lung muscles, so you can develop and improve your lung health.
This device has been constructed to encourage a slow Sustained Maximal Inspiration (SMI).
It is the most common of the pulmonary function tests (PFTs), measuring your lung function: the amount/volume and speed/flow of air that you can inhale and exhale.
What is a spirometer?
Our TriFlo Inspiratory Exerciser is a breath exerciser, also known as an incentive spirometer, that assists you with:
- exercising taking deep breaths,
- helping clear the airways
- preventing fluid or mucus building up in the lungs
- making it easier for you to breathe focussing on the inspiration flow in mls per second.
The deep breathing exerciser has 3 air columns with 3 different colour balls. As you breathe in, the balls inside the chambers will move up. The height of the ball will show how much air you inhale.
Who benefits from this lung exerciser device?
Whatever type of chronic obstructive lung disease you suffer, the TriFlo Inspiratory Exerciser will monitor your lung capacity and assist in proper breathing technique.
A spirometer is ideal for people suffering from a chronic respiratory condition such as:
- asthma
- emphysema
- bronchitis
- COPD
- Cystic Fibrosis
How to use the Triflo 3 ball incentive spirometer?
- Hold the respiratory trainer in the upright position at mouth level
- Exhale normally and place your lips around the mouthpiece
- Inhale slowly and deeply until lifting the first ball
- If you need to increase the intensity of your inhalation, inhale at a rate to raise all 3 balls
- Hold your breath for as long as possible
- Remove the mouthpiece, relax and exhale
- Repeat the process
If the ball in the first column is kept afloat for 1 second, the inhalation volume is 600ml/sec.
If the first AND second ball are kept afloat, the inhalation volume is 900 ml/sec.
If all 3 balls are kept at the top of the columns, the inspired volume is approximately 1200 ml/sec.
By carefully following your doctor’s instructions and the directions provided by the Able TriFlo Breathing Exerciser, you will see and feel the benefits of the deep breathing exercises.
The Able TriFlo Inspiratory Exerciser will help you check your progress to achieve optimum lung capacity and breathe better, easier and deeper.
If breathing problems occur, Bettercaremarket recommends you see your healthcare professional.
