Personal Best Peak Flow Meter

Directions for Use:

Please see the Owner's Manual tab for full instructions on using and cleaning the Personal Best® Full Range Peak Flow Meter.

General

• Cleaning:

Please follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning the peak flow meter. Generally, the device should be cleaned at least every 2 weeks using warm water with a mild liquid soap, then rinsed and air dried. The device is dishwasher safe (top rack). Do not boil or autoclave.

• Replacement:

Replace the peak flow meter every 2 years. For multi-patient use, replace more frequently.

• Multi-Patient Use:

Personal Best peak flow meters are designed and intended for single-patient use. The device may be used for multi-patient use so long as it is cleaned thoroughly after each use and disposable mouthpieces are used. To reduce the risk of cross-contamination during multi-patient screenings, it is recommended that one-way valve Safety disposable mouthpieces (Respironics Part # HS714¹) be used. The one-way valve prevents patients from inadvertently breathing in air through the meter during PEF testing.
