Intended Use
The GoSpiro® is intended to be used by adults and children over 5 years old in physician's offices, clinics and home settings to conduct basic lung function and spirometry testing. It is a single-patient use device.
Device Story
GoSpiro is a handheld, portable diagnostic spirometer for lung function testing in clinical and home settings. It uses a vertical turbine volume sensor to measure airflow and volume directly at BTPS (body temperature and pressure, saturated). An internal electronic temperature sensor on the PCB enables correction of inspired volumes and flows. The device transmits real-time flow-volume loop data via Bluetooth to a smartphone or tablet running the GoSpiro App. It performs calculations meeting ATS/ERS requirements, including quality control indices like time to peak flow and back-extrapolated volume. The device is powered by a rechargeable Lithium battery. Healthcare providers use the transmitted data and quality indices to assess lung function and make clinical decisions. The device benefits patients by enabling remote monitoring and tele-healthcare applications for respiratory conditions.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included ATS/ERS waveform simulator performance, flow resistance, high altitude performance, battery safety (IEC 62133), wireless coexistence, and biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1, -5, -10). Human factors study performed. No clinical trial data presented.
Technological Characteristics
Handheld turbine-based spirometer. Materials: Biocompatible per ISO 10993. Sensing: Vertical turbine transducer; electronic temperature sensor for BTPS correction. Energy: 3.7V 500mAh rechargeable Lithium battery. Connectivity: Bluetooth to mobile app. Standards: AAMI ANSI ES 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-11. Ingress Protection: IP22. Software: IEC 62304 compliant.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adults and children over 5 years old for basic lung function and spirometry testing in physician offices, clinics, and home settings. Contraindicated for patients with hemoptysis of unknown origin, pneumothorax, unstable cardiovascular status (recent MI, uncontrolled hypertension, pulmonary embolism, stroke, unstable angina), recent thoracic/abdominal/eye surgery, nausea/vomiting/abdominal pain, thoracic/abdominal aneurysms, history of syncope associated with forced exhalation, active tuberculosis, or Hepatitis B, unless cleared by a physician.

### Device Description:
The GoSpiro is intended to be used by adults and children over 5 years old in physician's offices, clinics and home settings to conduct basic lung function and spirometry testing. It is a single-patient, use device.
The GoSpiro spirometer transmits real-time lung function data to computers, tablets or smartphones over a Bluetooth connection for tele-healthcare applications. The GoSpiro performs full flow-volume loops including inspiratory and expiratory data. The internal program performs all of the calculations for measurements to meet American Thoracic Society and European Respiratory Society requirements. It has built-in quality control measurements and transmits indices of measurement quality including time to peak flow, back-extrapolated volume, total expiratory time, and end-expiratory flow detection.
It is used with the GoSpiro App display and communications software on a smartphone or tablet.
The GoSpiro is powered by an internal rechargeable Lithium battery and is charged via its USB charging station connected to a USB power source. The device complies with ES 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-1-11.
The fundamental technology to measure flow is a vertical turbine volume sensor. The turbine transducer measures expired air directly at B.T.P.S. (body temperature and pressure with saturated water vapor) thus avoiding the requirement for temperature correction on exhalation. An electronic temperature sensor on the device PCB measures atmospheric temperature, thus enabling correction of inspired volumes and flows. This transducer is insensitive to the effects of condensation and avoids the need for individual calibration prior to performing a test.
### Indications for Use:
The GoSpiro® is intended to be used by adults and children over 5 years old in physician's offices, clinics and home settings to conduct basic lung function and spirometry testing. It is a single-patient use device.
### Contraindications:
Do not use the GoSpiro if you have any of the following unless your physician has cleared you to perform forced exhaled lung function measurements. Failure to obtain approval from your physician if you have any of these could result in serious injury or death:

Many of the parameters calculated and displayed for the subject device are variations of the same parameter, e.g., FEV, in which time is the only variable. We recognize that the predicate has fewer measured and reportable parameters; therefore we have selected a reference device, Microlab – K031102 from MicroDirect that has similar indications for use and with more measured and reportable parameters.
