INCENTIVE SPIROMETER

Definition

A portable mechanical breathing-muscle exerciser used in respiratory therapy to encourage and motivate deep-breathing manoeuvres, typically for the postsurgical treatment and prevention of atelectasis (lung collapse) and to help facilitate airway opening and clearing.

It includes an indicator in a housing that rises in relation to patient inspiratory effort, performed via an attached tube and mouthpiece, to determine the maximum volume of air which can be inspired.
