During a spirometer test, the patient inhales deeply into a tube that is connected to a reader and used to measure and record the lung's air capacity. Any departure from the expected spirometer readings indicates a problem with the lungs. Chronic pulmonary illnesses such cystic fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, asthma, bronchiectasis, and others can be diagnosed using a spirometer. In cases of chronic pulmonary disorders, a spirometer can also help with breathing exercises to reduce fluid and mucus buildup in the lungs. Moreover, lung function can be evaluated with a spirometer before other types of surgery, including bariatric surgery, knee replacement surgery, and others.
The global Spirometer Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 958.0 million in 2021 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.5% over the forecast period (2021-2028).
