Voldyne Incentive Spirometer FAQs
Q. What is a good reading on Voldyne 2500 Spirometer?
A. To be considered natural, your expected percentages for FVC and FEV1 should be above 80% and your FEV1/FVC ratio percentage should be above 70% (and 65% in persons older than age 65).
Q. Is incentive spirometer good for COPD?
A.Yes, Incentive spirometry is used to increase alveolar ventilation and oxygenation in lifestyle.
Q. Can spirometer increase lung capacity?
A. Incentive spirometers gently exercise the lungs and keeps the lungs as healthy as possible. An incentive spirometer increases lung capacity and improves patient's ability to breathe.
Q. How many times should a patient use an incentive spirometer?
A. Use the Incentive Spirometer every 1 to 2 hours, or as instructed by your nurse or doctor.
Q. What is a normal oxygen level for someone with COPD?
A. Although individuals with COPD often report lower SpO2 levels and fall between 92% - 88% as their standard oxygen saturation, it is still essential to make sure they do not fall below these metrics.
Q. What is the normal lung capacity?
A. Lung capacity or total lung capacity (TLC) is the maximum volume of air the lungs can hold. It is measured in liters. The predicted total lung capacity (TLC) is based on your age, height, sex and ethnicity. Among healthy adults, the average lung capacity is about 6 liters. The lungs mature about the 20-25 years of age and post 35, it gradually decreases the air holding capacity.
