An incentive spirometer is a handheld medical device used to help patients improve the functioning of their lungs. By training patients to take slow and deep breaths, this simplified spirometer facilitates lung expansion and strengthening. Patients inhale through a mouthpiece, which causes a piston inside the device to rise. This visual feedback helps them monitor their inspiratory effort. Incentive spirometers are commonly used after surgery or other illnesses to prevent pulmonary complications.

Patients inhale through a mouthpiece, which causes a piston inside the device to rise. This visual feedback helps them monitor their inspiratory effort.

  • 誘發性肺活量計 ( incentive spirometer ) 是一种医疗设备,用於任何可能危害呼吸功能手術的患者,特别是肺部手术,幫助病人改善他们的肺部功能,預防及改善肺塌陷。 ,但也適用於心臟等,具有長時間麻醉和臥床的手術中恢復的患者。誘發性肺活量計還被提倡给肺炎或的患者,用於幫助减少液體滯留肺部的機會。 病人需要盡可能深且慢的從肺量計吸氣,接著屏氣2-6秒鐘的時間,提供了撐開肺泡的背壓。 作用機制主要模擬自然深呼吸或打哈欠。 內含的活塞(piston)作為一個計量病人肺功能的指標,並且透過指標持續深吸氣。 患者通常被要求在一天中做多次訓練,同時測量進步程度。 (zh)
