Peakflow Meters ^
Peak flow meters are handheld devices used to measure the maximum speed at which a person can exhale air forcefully. They are primarily used for monitoring and managing asthma, helping individuals track their lung function and detect changes in airflow. By measuring peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), peak flow meters provide insights into the narrowing of airways, indicating the severity of asthma symptoms and helping adjust medication dosage accordingly. Regular peak flow monitoring assists in assessing asthma control, identifying triggers, and guiding treatment decisions, empowering individuals to manage their condition effectively.
