INTRODUCTION
1.1
1.1.1
Intended Use
User Category
The spirobank II spirometer + oximeter calculates a series of parameters relating to human
respiratory function.
The product is therefore intended for use by a doctor or by a trained paramedic or technician
under the supervision of a doctor, and has also been designed for home care by patients.
Typically the doctor “prescribes” a spirometry test and is responsible for analysing and
controlling the results obtained.
1.1.2
Ability and experience required
The correct use of the device, the interpretation of the results and the maintenance of the
device all require qualified personnel. In the event that the device is operated by the patient,
then sufficient training must first be given to the patient by the doctor or by the trained
paramedic under the supervision of the doctor.
!!' $ ! ( $
1.1.3
Operating environment
spirobank II has been designed for use in a doctor’s office, in a hospital or directly by the
patient during day-to-day activities for the continuous monitoring of physical conditions. All
information necessary for the proper use of the device in electromagnetic environments (as
required by the EN 60601-1-2 Standard) is available from the manufacturer.
Used at home, at work, at school or during sports, day by day the device records data and
functional respiratory parameters for a period of weeks or months, assisting the patient in
making a better assessment of his own health.
The procedures for using the device at home are described according to the type of test to be
made; the display will show all instructions (messages, suggestions etc.) step-by-step, which
allows the subject to correctly perform tests and obtain correct results, to be analysed by the
doctor.
The instrument is not intended for use in an operating theatre nor in the presence of
inflammable liquids or detergents, nor in the presence of inflammable anaesthetic gases
(oxygen or nitrogen).
spirobank II
User’s Manual cod. 980200
Rev 2.2
Page 6 of 60
The instrument is not designed to be used in direct air currents (e.g. wind), sources of heat or
cold, direct sun rays or other sources of light or energy, dust, sand or any other chemical
substances.
The user and/or the doctor are responsible for ensuring that the device is stored and used in
appropriate ambiental conditions.
!!' $ ! ( $
1.1.4
Who can or must make the installation
The device requires installation by qualified personnel. Normally the doctor configures the
instrument before giving it to the patient for use at home.
1.1.5
Subject effect on the use of the device
A spirometry test should only be carried out when the subject is at rest and in good health, and
thus in suitable testing conditions. A spirometry test requires the collaboration of the subject
since the subject must make a complete forced expiration, in order to have a meaningful test
result.
1.1.6
Limitations of use - Contraindications
An analysis of the results of a spirometry test is not by itself sufficient to make a correct
diagnosis of the subject’s clinical condition. A detailed clinical history of the subject is also
required together with the results of any other test(s) suggested by a doctor.
Test comments, a test interpretation and suggested courses of treatment must be given by a
doctor.
Any symptoms that the subject has at the time of the test must be carefully considered before
a spirometry test is made. The user is responsible to assess both the mental and the physical
capacity of the subject in order to make a correct test, and the user, in the evaluation of test
results, must also assess the degree of collaboration of each test carried out.
A spirometry test requires the full collaboration of the subject. The results depend on the
person’s capability to inspire and to expire all air completely and as fast as possible. If these
fundamental conditions are not respected then the results obtained during spirometry testing
will not be considered accurate, and therefore the test results are “not acceptable”.
The acceptability of a test is the responsibility of the user. Special attention should be given
to testing elderly subjects, children and handicapped people.
The device should never be used when it is possible or probable that the validity of the results
may be compromised due to any such external factors.

1.2.1
Danger of cross-contamination
Two different types of turbine sensors can be used with the device, one is reusable and one is
single-patient disposable. A disposable mouthpiece is required in order to connect a subject
to the spirometer. In order to avoid exposing the subject to the critical danger of crosscontamination, the reusable flow sensor must always be cleaned before each spirometry test,
and a new disposable mouthpiece must always be used for each subject. The use of an antibacterial filter is at the discretion of the doctor. If a single-patient disposable turbine is used,
then a new one must be used for each patient.
1.2.2
Turbine
!!' $ ! ( $
spirobank II

The following information applies to both turbine models.
The turbine must never be held under a jet of water or air and must never come into contact
with high temperature fluids.
Do not allow dust or foreign bodies to enter the turbine sensor, in order to avoid incorrect
functioning and possible damage. The presence of any impurities such as hair, sputum,
threads etc. within the body of the turbine sensor may seriously compromise the accuracy of
the measurements.
1.2.3
Mouthpiece
Any disposable mouthpieces included with the device are supplied only as a guide to the
correct type and dimensions of the mouthpiece required for this device, they are clean but not
sterile. To purchase appropriate mouthpieces, generally either paper or plastic, but in any

Product description
spirobank II is a pocket spirometer, with an optional pulse oximetry module. It can operate in
stand alone mode and it can be connected to a PC or to a printer using any one of several
available methods: RS232, USB, Bluetooth.
spirobank II is specifically designed to measure a range of respiratory parameters and to
monitor the saturation of oxygen in the blood and the heart beat. A quality control check is
carried out internally on the measured parameters and the device has an internal memory
sufficient for over 6000 spirometry tests or for 1000 hours (or 40 days) of oximetry monitoring.
spirobank II is a powerful and compact measurement device, intended for use by a
respiratory specialist or by a suitably trained generalist. The spirometer calculates up to 30
functional respiratory parameters providing the pharmacodynamic effects, i.e. the data
comparison after the administration of a drug (PRE/POST) for a bronchodilator test or for a
bronchial challenge test. A comparison of data is made between POST (after-drug) and PRE
(before drug administration).
The flow and volume measurement sensor is a digital turbine, based on the infrared
interruption principal. This principal ensures the accuracy and the reproducibility of the
measurements, without requiring a periodic calibration.
The features of this kind of sensor are listed below:
spirobank II
User’s Manual cod. 980200
Rev 2.2
Page 14 of 60
•
•
•
•
Accurate measurement even at very low flow rates (end of expiration)
Not influenced by gas humidity nor density
Shockproof and unbreakable
Inexpensive to replace.
The turbine flow measurement sensor is available both in reusable and in single-patient
disposable versions.
REUSEABLE TURBINE
DISPOSABLE TURBINE
The following precautions must be observed to ensure that the characteristics of the turbine
remain unaltered over time:
• for the disposable turbine: must always be substituted between patients.
• for the reusable turbine: always clean the turbine between patients, to ensure the maximum
level of hygiene and safety for the patient.
For a correct interpretation of a spirometry test, the measured values must be compared
either to the so-called normal or predicted values which are calculated from the
anthropometric details of the patient or, alternatively, to the personal best values from the
clinical history of the subject.
The personal best values can vary considerably from the predicted values, which are taken
from “healthy” subjects.
spirobank II is also able to transfer the stored test data through a simple acoustic coupling to
a PC, so the patient can send test data by phone to the doctor. In this way the doctor can
check the patient’s condition remotely.
spirobank II can also be connected to a PC (or to another computerised system) to configure
the system. All spirometric test results plus the related subject details stored inside the device
can be transferred from the device to the PC and then viewed on the PC (Flow/volume
curves, spirometry parameters, plus optional oximetry parameters).
The connection to the PC can be made in the following ways:
• through the RS232 port or
• through the USB port
spirobank II gives an automatic interpretation of each spirometry test carried out, and assigns
a “traffic light” feedback (green, yellow or red) to each test or series of tests. The set up of the
traffic light settings is made by the doctor responsible for the system configuration.
spirobank II
User’s Manual cod. 980200
Rev 2.2
Page 15 of 60
spirobank II is able to make FVC, VC & IVC, MVV and breathing profile tests, and calculates
an index of test acceptability (quality control) plus the reproducibility of the spirometry tests
carried out. The automatic test interpretation follows the latest 11 level ATS (American
Thoracic Society) classification. Each test can be repeated as required. The best parameters
are always available for review. The normal (predicted) values can be selected from several
normal “sets”. For example, within the European Union the majority of doctors use the ERS
(European Respiratory Society) predicted values.
Oximetry function
The oximetry sensor has two light emitting diodes (LEDs), one emits in the visible spectre and
one infrared. Both lights then pass through the finger and are “read” by the receiver. As these
lights pass through the finger, a proportion of the light is absorbed by the blood and by the
soft tissue, in function of the concentration of heamoglobin. The quantity of light absorbed, at
each frequency, depends on the degree of oxygenation of the haemoglobin inside the soft
tissue.
This measurement principal ensures accuracy and reproducibility, without requiring regular
calibration.
The oximetry sensor can be disinfected with isopropilic alcohol.
The operating battery is a 3V lithium battery, and the battery life is about 5 years, depending
on the use of the device.

Rev 2.2
Page 27 of 60
Calibration of the turbine is performed using a calibration syringe to make an FVC test for the
expired parameters and an FIVC test for the inspired parameters.
To access the calibration function, select the “Turbine Calibration” option from the Service
Menu with the horizontal scroll key and then press OK. The following screen appears:

FVC=0 FACTORY CALIBRATION
The Old FVC and the Old FIVC values now shown are the ones from the last calibration.
The values under the %Corr. column indicate the correction factor. These are pre-set or 0 by
default.
To make the calibration:
1 - Insert the volume in cL of the calibration syringe in use (e.g. for a 3L syringe, insert 300
cL).
2 - Insert both the FVC and FIVC values, obtained by the measurement made with the
calibration syringe, in the New FVC and New FIVC field.
Press
to select the value to be modified (SIRIN, New FVC, New FIVC).
Use or
to modify the parameter value selected.
Insert both the FVC and the FIVC values. If the calculated correction factors are acceptable
(<10%), they are displayed beside the New FVC and New FIVC parameters. The message
ENTER OK TO CONFIRM will appear.
Press ESC to return to the Service Menu without entering the correction.
If the FVC and FIVC values produce a correction factor that is >10%, the FVC and FIVC
values will not be accepted. This means that the system cannot correct for such a large
calibration error. In this case:
- Check the correct functioning of the spirobank II with a new turbine and/or
- Clean the turbine.
To erase the calibration in use and reset to the factory calibration, input 0 in the New FVC
and New FIVC fields.
Then press OK to return to the Service Menu.

2.7 Online operating mode (connected to a PC)
This operating mode is comparable to a laboratory spirometer, connected to a PC the device
operates in real time. Connect the unit to a PC using either the USB cable or the RS 232
serial cable.
spirobank II thus acts as an intelligent sensor for flow and volume measurement while the PC
controls functions, including the switching on and off of the unit.
Connected to a portable PC, spirobank II can carry out epidemiologic studies in work
environments, school settings etc..
As well as the standard spirometric parameters and F/V curves in real time, the instrument
also calculates more refined indices such as the ventilatory profile and the extrapolated
volume (Vext).
The PC software also allows the latest bronchial challenge test protocols, with the graph of
the FEV1 dose-response and time-response curves.

2.8 Spirometry Testing
To make a correct spirometry test we recommend to follow carefully the following instructions:
• Insert the mouthpiece into the protruding part of the turbine, by at least 0.5 cm;
• Fit the nose clip onto the nose of the subject to ensure that air cannot escape through
the nostrils;
• Hold spirobank II at either end in two hands, or alternatively hold it in one hand as you
would a cell phone. In either case, the display should be facing the user;
• Insert the mouthpiece well into the mouth beyond the teeth, being careful to ensure that
air cannot escape from the sides of the mouth;
• It is suggested to make testing in a standing position and during an expiration to lean
forward, to help the expiratory action with a compression of the abdomen.

The device displays the information regarding the turbine selected in the initial setting
(reusable or single-patient disposable), there follows the necessary information for each
screen in order to correctly carry out a test.
2.8.1
FVC Test
The phases as described on the screen must be followed, more specifically:
INSPIRE slowly
EXPIRE quickly
INSPIRE slowly
It is possible (and may be helpful) to start the test by breathing at rest for a few moments.
When ready to start inspire slowly as much air as possible (made easier by holding arms wide
apart) and then make a complete expiration as fast as possible. Then with the mouthpiece
always held firmly in the mouth, complete the cycle by inspiring again as quickly as possible.
This final inspiration may be left out if the inspiratory parameters (FIVC, FIV1, FIV1%, PIF) are
not of interest.
The optional initial inspiration phase can also be performed before inserting the mouthpiece in
the mouth.
After inspiring slowly and deeply, the following expiration must be made with the maximum
effort by expiring all air as fast as possible.
After 6 seconds of expiration the instrument will emit a continuous beep, this helps the user to
understand when the minimum expiry time has been reached.
!!' $ ! ( $
The test may be repeated several times by repeating the cycle without taking the mouthpiece
out of the mouth, in which case spirobank II recognises the best test (FVC+FEV1) and will
automatically show the results of this best test.
spirobank II
User’s Manual cod. 980200
Rev 2.2
Page 33 of 60
To end the test press OK.
During the test spirobank II emits "beeps", the frequency of which is directly proportional to the
inspired and expired air velocity. This is useful to the doctor to understand when the velocity of
the air is approaching zero, and therefore the patient has almost exhausted all of the inspired
or expired volume.
In the maintenance section an explanation is given as to how this feature can also function as
a very simple check system for the correct operation of the mobile “rotor” of the turbine.
For the FVC test to be judged as acceptable, besides breathing as deep as possible, it is also
required that the forced expiratory time (FET) is sufficiently long to allow for the complete
expiration of all air contained in the lungs.
Six seconds from the start of the forced expiratory test, spirobank II emits a continuous beep.
This is useful to the doctor to understand if the patient has reached the minimum expiry time,
as per the requirements of the major international pneumology associations.
2.8.2
VC Test
Ventilatory Profile
The Slow Vital Capacity test can be started by carrying out several complete breaths at rest.
After three or four such breaths a beep will sound to confirm that the ventilatory profile has
been measured and now you can proceed to carry out the VC or IVC test.
Expiratory Slow Vital Capacity: VC
After the beep inspire slowly as much air as possible and then expire slowly as much air as
possible.
Inspiratory Slow Vital Capacity: IVC
After the beep expire slowly as much air as possible and then inspire slowly as much air as
possible.
To end the test press OK.
To correctly carry out this test, follow the indications as described on the display.
2.8.3
MVV Test
Start the test by carrying out a series of forced inspirations and expirations with the
maximum possible amplitude. The suggested frequency is 30 breaths/min.
The test will terminate automatically after 12 seconds.

2.8.5
Spirometry test interpretation
Spirometry test interpretation is based on the Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) test and is
indicated both by a message and a traffic light code (green, yellow, red). For each test
made, an arrow on the upper left part of the screen indicates the interpretation of that test.
The connection between the traffic light colour and the test interpretation is shown below:
The algorithm utilized for the spirometry test interpretation is obtained by means of the
flow chart in annex 3 of this manual.
Through an analysis applied to some of the indices and parameters calculated in the FVC
test, spirobank II produces a variety of quality control comments useful for
understanding the reliability of the test made.
Where several comments related to the single test are calculated, spirobank II will only
show the most important to facilitate the test interpretation.
ERROR IN Vext and PEFT
If the extrapolated volume Vext is greater than 500 mL or greater than 5% of the FVC, or if
the PEFT (time to peak flow) is greater than 300 ms, then the following comment is
shown:
FIRST EXPIRATION TOO SLOW
FLOW DROP 50%
If the flow rate falls and then increases again by over 50% during the first second of a
forced expiry, the following comment is shown:
COUGH DETECTED DURING TEST
FET error
If FET is under the predicted threshold the following message appears:
EXPIRY TIME INSUFFICENT <6S
FLOW ERROR
If the last flow point of the F/V curve is greater than 200 mL/s, this indicates that the
expiration was not complete and thus the following comment is shown:
BLOW OUT ALL AIR IN LUNGS
Between two tests, spirobank II evaluates the reproducibility of the following parameters:

MAINTENANCE
spirobank II is an instrument that requires very little maintenance. The operations to perform
periodically are:
•
•
•
•
•
Cleaning and controlling of the reusable turbine.
Changing the disposable turbine before each test.
Cleaning of the oximetry sensor (for reusable sensors).
Changing the adhesive tape of the oximetry wrap sensor.
Changing the battery.
The maintenance operations described in the User’s Manual must be carried out carefully.
Failing to observe the instructions may cause errors in measurement or in the interpretation of
the measured values.
Modifications, adjustments, repairs, and reconfiguration must be carried out by the
manufacturer or by authorised persons.
In case of problems do not attempt to repair the unit.
The setting of configuration parameters must be carried out by qualified personnel. In any
case the risks pertaining to incorrect configuration settings do not constitute a danger for the
patient.
4.1 Cleaning and controlling the reusable turbine
The turbine utilized by spirobank II belongs to one of two categories: disposable and
reusable. These guarantee precise measurements and have the great advantage of requiring
no periodic calibration. In order to maintain the characteristics of the turbine a simple cleaning
is required prior to each use (only for the reusable turbine). This operation will also
guarantee perfect hygiene and the highest possible safety conditions for the patients.
Cleaning of the disposable turbine is not required, as it is supplied clean in a sealed plastic
bag. It must be disposed of after use.
spirobank II
User’s Manual cod. 980200
Rev 2.2
Page 47 of 60
!!' $ ! ( $
To clean the reusable turbine, first remove it by pulling it gently from the spirobank II turning
it anti-clockwise and pressing lightly. It can be helpful to push it gently from underneath with
one finger.
Immerse the turbine in a cold sterilising liquid and move it within the liquid to remove any
impurities which may be deposited inside. Leave it to soak for at least the time recommended
by the producer of the cleaning solution, as shown in the relevant instructions (in general at
least 20 minutes).
Rinse the turbine by immerging it in clean water (not hot).
Shake off the excess water from the turbine and leave it to dry, standing it vertically on a dry
surface.
To ensure that the turbine is functioning correctly before replacing it inside the instrument, it is
good practice to make a visual check of the rotation blade. Placing the turbine tube
horizontally and moving it gently from left to right and vice versa, the rotation blade (rotor)
must rotate freely. Otherwise, accurate measurement is no longer guaranteed and the turbine
must be replaced.
Once the turbine has been cleaned insert the turbine tube in its place following the
instructions indicated by the closed lock symbol printed on the plastic casing of the spirobank
II.
To insert the turbine correctly push it and then turn it clockwise until it reaching the stop,
which ensures that the tube has been blocked inside the casing.
4.2 Changing the adhesive tape of the wrap sensor
The adhesive tape is made with latex-free material.
•
•
Gently remove the used adhesive tape from the sensor and dispose of it.
The back of the sensor has alignment pins. Place the sensor with the alignment pins
facing the adhesive part of the tape and align the pins to the holes on the tape.
spirobank II
User’s Manual cod. 980200
Rev 2.2

•
Push the sensor so as to insert the pins into the holes of the tape. Lift both the sensor
and the tape and check that the pins of the sensor are correctly aligned.
4.3 Changing the Batteries
If the message "BATTERY DISCHARGED" appears on spirobank II display, or if the
instrument does not switch on, the batteries inside the compartment shown here under must
be changed as per the following points:
•
•
•
•
Remove the back cover by pressing and pushing it away from the device.

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters,
as determined by an electromagnetic site
survey,
should be less than the
compliance level in each frequency range.
Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following

NOTE UT is the a.c. mains voltage prior to application of the test level.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a) Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with
accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the spirobank II is used exceeds the
applicable RF compliance level above, the spirobank II should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal
performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the spirobank
II.
b) Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than [3] V/m.

Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the spirobank II
The spirobank II is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are
controlled. The customer or the user of the spirobank II can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and
the spirobank II as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications
equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in
metres (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the
maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.
