by Contec • Model: SP80B
The Contec SP80B is a compact, digital handheld spirometer utilized for assessing lung function and respiratory health. It employs infrared signal acquisition to measure essential parameters such as Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1), providing results as both absolute values and ratios relative to predicted values. The device supports dual data transmission via Bluetooth for mobile app connectivity and USB for detailed PC-based reporting.
Eligibility may vary by provider and plan. Check with your HSA/FSA administrator for specific details.
Evidence-based evaluation by medical professionals
"An excellent hybrid spirometer that offers standalone use via a vibrant built-in screen while maintaining Bluetooth and PC connectivity for long-term trend tracking."
The Contec SP80B Handheld Spirometer aims to offer the best of both worlds: a fully functional standalone device equipped with a 2.8-inch color LCD display, and a connected smart device featuring Bluetooth and USB synchronization. It measures an array of key pulmonary parameters including FVC, FEV1, PEF, and mid-flow rates (FEF25-75%), providing real-time flow-volume and volume-time curves directly on the screen. The device operates with an infrared sensor, achieving a clinical accuracy of ±3% for volume and ±5% for flow. Unlike purely app-dependent spirometers, the SP80B allows users to perform tests and receive immediate visual feedback—including green/yellow/red zone indicators—without needing to open a smartphone. Data can then be synced to mobile apps or Contec's Windows PC software for comprehensive longitudinal analysis. At its accessible price point, the SP80B is highly effective for asthma and COPD patients who desire the autonomy of a built-in screen alongside digital record-keeping capabilities.
