METHODSThis quasi-experimental study consisted of 40 patients from both genders aged 35-60 years, undergoing CABG. Two equal groups were selected through convenient sampling. Group-A patients performed IS while group-B performed DBE. The outcome measures were values of oxygen saturation (SaO2)by pulse oximetry, and partial pressures of oxygen (pO2) and carbon dioxide (pCO2) measured by arterial blood gases (ABGs).
CONCLUSION: There was an improvement in ABGs and SaO2 after CABG surgery in patients receiving chest physiotherapy interventions. Both techniques are equally effective in preventing and treating chest complications in patients having CABG.

The Easy on-PC spirometry sensor is directly connected via USB to your workstation where the EasyOne Connect software is installed. This software includes all advanced spirometry functionality at no extra charge and fulfills ATS/ERS 2005 and 2019 standards. Features include:
ndd offers a file-based integration utilizing an SFTP or network-based location for file communication with an EHR vendor. HL7 is the standard data structure that ndd utilizes but can support other data formats as well. The use of other interface engines can be utilized to complete an integration project.
Duration depends on the IT team of the facility. The ndd side of the integration process can be completed within a few hours for standard integrations. EasyOne Connect software is simply configured to point to the SFTP or network-based location where files are being placed.
Yes, EasyOne Connect offers an optional centralized patient database feature, enabling seamless access to patient orders and results across all instances of the software, irrespective of physical location. Customers can leverage their on-premise SQL servers or MS Azure environments to ensure data accessibility and consistency.
EasyOne Connect provides flexible options for managing users and their access. User accounts can be created and managed directly within EasyOne Connect for simple permission control. For more advanced management, the software supports integration with Active Directory for using your existing directory service accounts, groups, and permissions. EasyOne Connect also supports optional single sign-on (SSO) capability through integration with major identity providers. Please see application note for additional information.
ndd has integrated with all major vendors and can provide examples of successful integrations with various healthcare providers and organizations. You can contact our integration department via email at [email protected] for more information.
ndd does not charge for standard integration. In the event custom development is needed, ndd will provide a statement of work before a project begins. Almost all EHR vendors will charge a fee that the client is responsible for.
The result HL7 message will consist of a combination of discrete results and an embedded base64 PDF attachment for the PFT report. If you prefer, we also offer the option of including a reference link instead of the embedded PDF.
You can schedule a meeting with an integration engineer from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday. ndd can accommodate meetings outside of that timeframe if planned accordingly. The integration team can be reached via email at [email protected]. The support team can also be reached via email at [email protected] or by phone at

BTPS Correction is used to convert flow and volume measured at ambient conditions to the conditions within the lungs. Ambient conditions are called ATP (ambient temperature, pressure); the conditions within the lungs are called BTPS (body temperature, pressure, water vapor saturated).
Please consult Section 1.11 in the manual here for the latest computer requirements. Note that for the Easy on-PC latest version, V02.02.00.14 or greater, the following operating systems are no longer supported: Windows XP SP3 and Windows Vista.
The EasyOne Connect software for the Easy on-PC offers a variety of animated screens for children as well as adults. These incentive screens, in addition to the real-time curves, encourage the patients to help them achieve high quality spirometry results. Here are some examples of the pediatric incentive screens available:

For organizations like NIOSH/OSHA or Social Security/Disability, where calibration checks are required, ndd offers a 3-Liter calibration syringe. A calibration check (cal-check) is not to be confused with calibration. A cal-check simply validates that the device is within calibration limits. Unlike calibration, a cal-check does not adjust the calibration values.
According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, Asthma is a leading cause for chronic absenteeism, which is defined as missing 10 percent or more of school days for any reason, excused or unexcused. It detracts from learning and is a proven early warning sign of academic risk. This affects young children in particular ways that can shape academic outcomes for their entire school career. Below are our best solutions to diagnose asthma and keep students in class.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, or COPD, is a major problem around the world. But as with many other conditions, the true extent of the problem is not entirely understood. Here in the United States, approximately $50 billion is spent on COPD annually, between the direct costs of healthcare delivery and the indirect costs that the economy endures as a result, like lost productivity and absenteeism. Some 15 million or so people have been formally diagnosed with COPD, and it is fourth-leading cause of death in America.
We're proud to offer a private-brand option to our line of spirometry tools to help you confidently diagnose and manage Asthma and COPD. Henry Schein is dedicated to providing the best diagnostic equipment and excited to announce the Henry Schein EasyOne Air spirometer.

As a doctor, you know that spirometry is a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring lung diseases. However, you may also be aware that patients often have questions about the test. This section will provide you with some common questions that patients may ask, as well as answers to those questions. This will help you to prepare for these questions and provide your patients with the information they need.
Spirometry is a test that measures how well the lungs work. It is a non-invasive test that can be used to diagnose and monitor a variety of lung diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and interstitial lung disease.
During a spirometry test, the patient breathes into a mouthpiece connected to a machine called a spirometer. The spirometer will measure the amount of air a patient can breathe in and out, as well as the speed of breath.
The results of a spirometry test can help doctors to determine the severity of lung disease and to track progress over time. Spirometry can also be used to diagnose asthma, COPD, and other lung diseases.
No, there is no pain or discomfort during spirometry. The test is non-invasive and does not involve any needles or other medical procedures. However, some patients may experience mild side effects, such as coughing or shortness of breath. These side effects are usually mild and go away on their own.
Spirometry can take up to 30 minutes. This is usually because the technician may need to repeat the test several times in order to get accurate results. However, in most cases, spirometry should only take about 10 minutes to complete.
With a profound understanding of the pivotal role that accurate diagnostics play in medical practice, we offer spirometers that empower doctors and medical professionals to make informed decisions for their patients' well-being. After you explore our selection, fill out a form and a sales
