Ultima PF™ pulmonary function system

Complete Pulmonary Function Testing

Contact a Sales Rep

A medical system can’t just look nice, it has to be able to improve patient care with intuitive, easy-to-use technology while optimizing functional capabilities. We designed the Ultima Series™ cardiorespiratory diagnostic systems to do just that. 

The Ultima PF™ pulmonary function system offers complete pulmonary function testing for pediatric through adult patients. 

  • Powerful diagnostic tool for the clinician. 
  • Compact and versatile pulmonary function platform. 
  • Optional upgrades include complete exercise and nutritional assessment, providing future expansion of testing capabilities. 

Unique System Design

The Ultima system’s all-in-one design allows for maximum testing comfort for the technician and the patient while utilizing the latest technology for unparalleled performance and reliability.

  • Full adjustable desktop allows for expansive personal workspace whether the technologist is sitting for standing.
  • Room-to-room portability with gas tanks.
  • Scheduler allows for automatic warm-up so the system is always ready for testing.

Test Specific Quick Calibration

The calibration tower allows for simplified gas calibration based on the test being performed (pulmonary function or metabolic) without compromising accuracy of test results and lab efficiency.

Advanced Digital Electronics

  • Real-Time Diffusion provides visualization of the alveolar gas sample.
  • Automatic gas calibration saves testing time.

ATS/ERS Standards and Guidelines compliant
Comprehensive set of measurements for Lung Volumes, Spirometry & Diffusion

All test features and options shown below are for users with BreezeSuite™ software.

Superior Infection Control

Having clear and defined infection control policies is important for your protection.

We give you three options for infection control - you make the choice that is right for you!

1. Change: simply change the filter and keep the same preVent® flow sensor and BreathPath™ patient circuit.

2. Re-Use: change the flow sensor and patient circuit between patients and replace with disinfected components.

3. Dispose: dispose of the flow sensor and patient circuit after each patient.

preVent® Flow Sensor for Simplicity and Accuracy

Our proprietary preVent® flow sensor saves time between patients and provides maximum infection control compared to other pneumotach devices..

  • Eliminates warm-up or flow recalibration between patients.
  • Simple snap in setup contains no moving parts or electronics for maximum infection control.
  • Options to use with a filter (for PFT), sterilize, or discard, making it extremely versatile and cost effective.
  • Meets ATS/ERS standards and specifications.
