The document describes functional checks for a spirometry system including verifying that the pressure reading does not drop more than 4 cmH2O during one minute, checking that the spirometry loop can be changed between Flow/Vol and Paw/Vol loops, and checking that the flow waveform responds correctly when breathing in and out.

Functional check – Spirometry system leak test – Verify that the pressure reading does not drop more

than 4 cmH2O (3 mmHg) during one minute.

Functional check – Module keys – Check that the spirometry loop is changed from Flow / Vol loop to
Paw/Vol loop, or vice versa.

Functional check – Agent identification

Functional check – Flow waveform – Check that the flow waveform responds when one breathes in and
out. The setting of the inspiratory flow may be positive or negative.
