Powerbreathe Kinetic KH2: Specially designed for health professionals

The POWERbreathe KH2 includes several innovative features providing the possibility of MIP and PIF testing , allowing professionals to record patient training data through the KH2 portable handheld device.

The KH2 advanced model allows you to view the results in real time using the revolutionary Breathe-Link Medic Software. With the development of POWERbreathe's electronically controlled valve, you can instantly see the average load, force and volume inhaled.

The POWERbreathe KH2 is the latest testing, monitoring and analysis device for Respiratory Muscle Training.

test modes:

- Maximum Inspiratory Pressure Test (MIP). Test that measures the muscular force in the respiration. Real-time feedback provides detailed breath-by-breath analysis to aid evaluation of respiratory and pulmonary rehabilitation.

- Force Index (S-Index) is the measure of the patient's inspiratory force, based on the relationship between pressure and flow.

- PIF (Flow) is the maximum measure at which the patient can inhale air into the lungs. This measure is based on the maximum measure of the flow rate during the respiratory test, which gives an indication of the speed at which they contract the patient's muscles.

Test results:

The test results can be viewed at:

- Level 1: graph that shows session by session the tests carried out with the KH2. Displays MIP and average pressure per session

- Level 2: breath-by-breath detail of the test performed, which allows the health professional to identify trends and advances.

- Level 3: evaluation of individual breaths

Training modes:

- Breathe-Link Medic Basic View: displays the graph of the major respiratory parameters to assess and stimulate the patient's training performance. The goal is to maximize training performance.

-Breathe-Link Medic Professional View: professional view of major respiratory parameters to assess and stimulate patient training performance. Analyze a training session breath by breath in real time. It shows in real time the major parameters of force, energy, pressure and flow.

Personalized training:

The Breathe-link Medic Software offers a simple and easy interactive framework that allows you to adjust each breath of the training by clicking and dragging the bars on the screen.

Allows professionals to create personalized training sessions to optimize patient training.

Flexibility of changing the patient's training load on each breath.

Training results:

The results of the training can be visualized in graphs that show different scales:

- Level 1-Session Detail: displays multiple session parameters as histograms.

- Level 2-Breath-by-Breath Detail: Displays multiple parameters for each breath as histograms.

- Level 3-Individual Detail of Each Breath : presents linear graphs of the main respiratory parameters of each breath of the session. It makes it easier for the health professional to evaluate in detail the respiratory changes that can affect the patient's breathing.

- Patient Data: The Breathe-Link Medic Software presents an integrated view of all the patients registered in it. Enabling easy access to patient data.

Technical characteristics:

- Auto-optimized training – automatically adapts the resistance to the training required

- Training intensity – can be adjusted in “automatic” or “manual” mode to increase/decrease the load intensity (cmH2O)

- Training Guide - guides breathing to an appropriate rhythm

- Training Results: optional display between load, force and volume of work

- Force Index: calculates the inspiratory force index (cmH2O) based on the PIF

- MIP/PIF EMR –Maximum Inspiratory Pressure and Peak Inspiratory Flow tests aimed at evaluating the inspiratory muscles

- Breathe-Link Pro-View: allows advanced, detailed and simultaneous monitoring and analysis of all EMI data

- Breathe-Link Medic software: allows sessions with biofeedback. Real-time analysis and monitoring of the data obtained. Various visualization options through graphs.

- Breathe-Link Custom: allows you to customize sessions by generating specific training.
