The Olympus EVIS LUCERA SPECTRUM video system has set a new standard for endoscopic imaging, offering outstanding image quality.

Ultima CardiO2

 ‌‌

The Ultima CardiO2 is a cardiorespiratory system that offers metabolic stress testing, and configuration of both pulmonary function testing (PFT) and gas exchange testing.

- Fast responding oxygen and carbon dioxide sensors acquire data on a discrete breath-by-breath basis, providing continuous analysis and display of data.

- Simplified testing and data interpreation.

- Optional wireless ECG.

TRACKMASTER Treadmill

‌ ‌‌

The TRACKMASTER Treadmill is intended as a stressing device by providing motion to the patient. This can be tracked and interfaced with a variety of cardiac and pulmonary stress testing systems.

Ergoline Ergoselect:

‌ ‌‌

The Ergoline Ergoselect is the quintessential ergometer for exercise ECGs. Free programming of exercise protocols, intuitive operation and universal interfaces (digital, analog, remote start) for connecting to all ECG recorders and PC ECGs on the market.

ChloroCheckR   ChloridometerR  Analyzer


The ChloroCheckR ChloridometerR is used as part of the Newborn Screening (NBS) programme and is held as the gold standard diagnostic test for Cystic Fibrosis. After sufficient amounts of sweat chloride has been collected, the sample will be analysed using the ChloroCheckR system.

Devilbiss 646 Nebuliser:

‌ ‌‌

The Model 646 nebuliser converts liquid into aerosol via a high velocity, compressed air stream. Used in conjunction with a compressor, it delivers consistent aerosol particles to the lungs of asthmatic patients. It has a 5cc capacity and an MMAD of 5 microns. The break-resistant nebuliser easily disassembles for sterilisation and is autoclavable.

Dosimeter (MB3 Markos Mefar):

‌ ‌‌

The MB3 provides an accurate, easy-to-use and reliable method for the study, diagnosis and prevention of bronchial asthma.

Lung Clearance Index / N₂ Washout:

‌ ‌‌

The EXHALYZER D offer various different kind of spirometry test for neonatal to adult patients. The modular system is easy upgradeable and fully compliant with the ATS / ERS recommendations for infant / paediatric pulmonary function testing.

Oximeter (Aeon - A310)

‌ ‌‌

The Aeon A310 the performance, comfort and memory you demand from a pulse oximeter.

Spirometer Microlab MK8

‌ ‌‌

The Microlab Spirometer is lightweight, portable and easy-to-use. Spirometry testing of FVC and SVC.

                                     Cardiac / Vascular Equipment
