Clement Clarke In-Check device

The misuse of inhalers is common among people with asthma. Consequently, only small amounts of medication reach the patients’ lungs. The In-Check device helps to identify whether a patient is using their inhaler correctly by simulating the resistance of popular inhalers (MDIs and DPIs). This enables clinicians to train patients to use the optimal force to achieve optimal deposition of medication with a particular device.
Inspiratory flows in the range of 15 l/min to 120 l/ min can be measured. The In-Check device is accurate to +/- 10% or 10 l/min (whichever is greater).

The In-Check device is supplied with a sterilisable plastic mouthpiece and an adapter for a paediatric mouthpiece. A one-way disposable mouthpiece or a bacterial/viral filter can be used to minimise the risk of cross infection.
