Traditional Flowmeter FlowZig

The natural solution for hygienic flowmetry. The entire procedure is simple, reliable, hygienic and time-saving.

The invisible built-in measuring equipment and the use of a ceramic toilet ensure that both men and women experience urination in this toilet as a recognizable and natural experience. It approximates the home situation.

After registration of the flow, the Flow-Clean Uroflow toilet is automatically rinsed clean. Even stools or toilet paper that have come along are easily disposed of.

During the uroflow registration, the patient sits firmly and in a natural position. Even for small children, the use of a child seat leads to good sitting and body posture.

A cycling test, also known as a cycling exercise test, is a diagnostic procedure used to assess an individual's cardiovascular fitness and endurance. It is a commonly used test in medical, sports and rehabilitation settings.

During a bicycle test, the person is placed on a special stationary bicycle, usually in a clinical setting or laboratory. The person must cycle for a period of time while gradually increasing the resistance and/or intensity of the exercise. During the test, several parameters are measured and evaluated, including heart rate, blood pressure, respiration, oxygen uptake, carbon dioxide production, and exercise levels.

The cycling test provides valuable information about an individual's cardiovascular health, endurance and overall physical fitness. It can be used to identify the presence of underlying heart and lung conditions, such as coronary artery disease, cardiac arrhythmias, or decreased lung function. In addition, the cycling test can also be used to assess the effectiveness of a particular treatment or training program, to adjust the training intensity or to monitor the progress of rehabilitation.

The cycle test is usually performed under the supervision of a medical professional, such as a physician, physiologist, or physical therapist. It may be supplemented with electrocardiography (ECG) to measure the electrical activity of the heart and check for any abnormalities during exercise.

It is important to note that the cycle test is a strenuous procedure and individuals with certain health conditions or risk factors may not be suitable to perform this test without medical advice. Therefore, the test is usually performed under controlled conditions and with the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of the person.

Flowmetry, also known as spirometry or pulmonary function testing, is a diagnostic procedure used to measure an individual's lung function and airflow parameters. It is a commonly used test in medical, pulmonological and allergological practice to assess respiratory health and diagnose or monitor lung disease.

During a flowmetry, various breathing parameters are measured using a device called a spirometer. The person is asked to inhale deeply and then exhale as quickly and forcefully as possible into the spirometer. The spirometer measures the airflow, volume and velocity of exhaled air, allowing assessment of several parameters, including:

1. Forced Vital Capacity (FVC): This is the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after a maximal inhalation.

2. Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1): This is the amount of air a person can force exhale in the first second after a maximal inhalation. FEV1 is often used to assess the degree of airflow limitation.

3. Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF): This is the maximum rate at which air is exhaled during a forceful exhalation. PEF can vary depending on airway size and can be used to assess the degree of respiratory limitation.

4. Forced Expiratory Flow (FEF): This is the average airflow rate during a given portion of exhalation. Different FEF values are calculated to evaluate different parts of exhalation, such as FEF25-75%, which measures the average airflow rate between 25% and 75% of exhalation.

Flowmetry is commonly used to diagnose lung conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary fibrosis, assess disease severity, monitor treatment, and assess the effectiveness of medication or other interventions.

The procedure is usually performed under the supervision of a medical professional, such as a pulmonologist, allergist, or pulmonary function lab technician, and the results are interpreted using reference values and comparisons with expected values for the person's age, sex, and height. It is a safe and non-invasive test that is often performed in clinics, hospitals and other healthcare facilities.

Urodynamics is a medical discipline that focuses on assessing and measuring the function and functioning of the lower urinary tract. It includes a series of diagnostic tests and procedures used to evaluate and diagnose urinary tract disorders and urinary incontinence. These tests help understand the cause and nature of problems related to the bladder, urethra, and pelvic floor.

Some of the most common urodynamic tests are:

1. Urodynamics: This is a comprehensive evaluation of urinary tract function, measuring various parameters during bladder filling and emptying. It includes measuring bladder pressure, urine flow rate, bladder filling, and assessing bladder contractile force.

2. Cystometry: This is a urodynamic test in which the bladder is filled with sterile water through a thin catheter while measuring pressure in the bladder and urethra. This helps assess bladder function, storage capacity, and the bladder's ability to properly drain urine.

3. Urethral Pressure Measurement: This test measures the pressure in the urethra at rest and during urination to assess normal function of the urethra and identify any obstructions.

4. Urethral Profilometry: This is a measurement of the pressure changes in the urethra at rest and during urination to identify the pressure profiles and possible abnormalities.

5. Electromyography (EMG): This test measures the electrical activity of the muscles in the pelvic floor area to assess for involuntary contractions or weakness of the muscles responsible for controlling urine and fecal flow.

Urodynamic tests are often performed by specialists in urology, gynecology, or urologic nurses. The results of urodynamic testing help to make an accurate diagnosis and determine the most appropriate treatment plan for urinary tract disorders, such as stress incontinence, overactive bladder, neurogenic bladder disorders and other functional problems related to the urinary system.
