Key Features
How does the WhistleWatch Peak Flow Meter work?
The Whistle Watch is a peak flow meter designed to enable asthmatic children to check their respiratory status. Children are old enough to use WhistleWatch as soon as they can make it whistle.
When set to 80% of the patient's best PEFR (Peak Efficiency Flow Rate) by a doctor or clinician, the whistle (device sounds) will be activated when the PEFR is reached.
It can measure a peak flow rate of 130 (80% of 160) - 340 (80% of 427) liters per minute absolute.
The WhistleWatch acts as an early warning system, thus preventing attacks. Use your PuffMinder Hand Held Peak Flow Meter device every day, and you can expect the following results:
