Simply enter the patient’s age, height and gender, select the required test type and begin testing. The Alpha automatically determines the best test and shows simple and clear real-time graphs, interpretation and test quality control information. When testing is complete you can print the report directly from the built-in thermal printer – no PC is required.
The ALPHA is supplied with Vitalograph Reports Software with the ability to create editable PDFs for filing and manual upload to electronic medical record (EMR) systems. Suitable for adult and paediatric patients, and with new GLI spirometry predicted equations and Z-Scores included as standard, the ALPHA is suitable for general healthcare and occupational health environments.

Vitalograph ALPHA Touch is an easy to use, lightweight desktop spirometer that offers the benefits of portability and a built-in printer.
The precise and durable measurement technology is extremely accurate and stable over time, assured through our simple calibration check routines as recommended by international spirometry guidelines (ARTP, ATS/ERS, etc.) and good practice. No need for expensive disposable sensors, turbine, spirettes nor flow tubes with optimal hygiene assured via Vitalograph Bacterial Viral Filters (BVF™).
A large, high resolution colour touch screen display, combined with an intuitive icon driven user interface, makes the ALPHA Touch quick and simple to operate.
A database for over 10,000 patients, child friendly incentive animations and the latest GLI spirometry predicted equations and Z-scores contribute to all round suitability for adult and paediatric patients within general healthcare and occupational health environments.
The ALPHA Touch is supplied with Vitalograph Reports Software with the ability to create editable PDFs for filing and manual upload to electronic medical record (EMR) systems. Customers can also choose to upgrade to the ALPHA Touch with Spirotrac® Software, which allows for automatic data exchange, via HL7 and GDT transfer protocols, with EMR systems and the ability to add other diagnostic tests and physiological measurements (including resting 12-lead ECG, SpO2, NIBP and Audiometry).
