1.1 Intended use
The Spirobank II spirometer and pulse oximeter is intended to be used by a physician, by a licensed healthcare professional or by a
patient under the instruction of a physician or of a licensed healthcare professional.
The device is intended to test lung function and can make:
• spirometry testing in adult and pediatric patients, excluding infants and neonates
• oximetry testing in people of all ages.
It can be used in hospital setting, physician's office, factory, pharmacy.
1.1.1 User category
Spirobank II spirometer + oximeter calculates a series of parameters relating to human respiratory function.
Typically the doctor “prescribes” a spirometry test and is responsible for analysing and checking the results obtained.
1.1.2 Ability and experience required
The correct use of the device, the interpretation of the results and the maintenance of the device all require qualified personnel. In the
event that the device is to be operated by a patient, sufficient training must first be given to the patient by the doctor.
WARNING
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by the user of the device failing to follow instructions
and warnings in this manual.
If the user of the device is a person considered to be cognitively impaired the operation of the device must be made under the
supervision and responsibility of the person legally responsible to supervise the cognitively impaired person.
WARNING
When used as a pulse-oximeter, the Spirobank II is intended for spot-checking, overnight sleep screening and/or continuous
monitoring when used by a trained healthcare professional.
1.1.3 Operating Environment
Spirobank II has been designed for use in hospital setting, physician's office, factory, pharmacy.
The device is not intended for use in an operating theatre nor in the presence of inflammable liquids or detergents, nor in the presence
of inflammable anaesthetic gases (oxygen or nitrogen).

User manual
1.1.4 Patient effect on the use of the device
A spirometry test should only be carried out when the patient is at rest and in good health, in suitable testing conditions. A spirometry
test requires the full collaboration of the patient since she/he must perform a complete forced expiration, in order to obtain a reliable
test result.
1.1.5 Limitations of use –Contraindications
An analysis of the results of a spirometry test is not by itself sufficient to make a correct diagnosis of the patient’s clinical condition. A
detailed clinical history of the patient is also required together with the results of any other test(s) suggested by a doctor.
Test comments, a test interpretation and suggested therapeutic treatment must be given by a doctor.
Any symptoms that the patient has at the time of the test must be carefully considered before a spirometry test is made. The user is
responsible to assess both the mental and the physical condition of the patient in order to perform a proper test, furthermore, in the
evaluation of test results, the user must also assess the degree of collaboration of each test carried out.
A spirometry test requires the full collaboration of the patient. The results depend on the person’s ability to inspire as much air as possible
and to expire all of the air as fast and for as long as possible. If these fundamental conditions are not respected then the results obtained
during spirometry testing will not be considered accurate, and therefore the test results are “not acceptable”.
The acceptability of a test is the responsibility of the doctor. Special attention should be given when testing elderly patients, children and
handicapped people.
The device should not be used if any conceivable or actual anomalies or malfunctions appear which may compromise the accuracy of
the results.
WARNING
When used as a pulse oximeter the Spirobank II has limited alarms, therefore the device requires frequent display observation
of SpO2 and pulse rate.
1.2 Important safety warnings
Spirobank II has been examined by an independent laboratory which has certified the compliance of the device to the European
Safety Standards EN 60601-1 and guarantees the EMC Requirements within the limits laid down in the European Standard EN 60601-
1-2.
Spirobank II is continuously checked during manufacturing and therefore the product complies with the established security levels and
quality standards laid down by the Council Directive 93/42/EEC for MEDICAL DEVICES.
After removing the device from its packaging, check to see that there is no visible damage. In case of damage do not use the device and
return it to the manufacturer for repair.
WARNING
The safety and the correct performance of the device can only be assured if the user respects all of the relevant safety rules
and regulations.
The manufacturer will not be held responsible for damage due to user’s neglect to correctly to follow these instructions.
The device must be used only and exclusively as a spirometer following the indications given by the manufacturer with
particular attention to the paragraph on INTENDED USE, and utilizing only original spare parts and accessories. Use of
non-original parts such as the turbine flow sensor and oximetry sensor or other accessories may cause errors in measurement
and/or compromise the correct functioning of the device, and is therefore not permitted.
In particular, the use of cables other than those specified by the manufacturer could cause increased emissions or lower
electromagnetic immunity from the device and result in improper operation.
The device should not be used beyond the declared life span.. In normal conditions the lifespan of the device is estimated to
be around 10 years.
The device constantly monitors the state of charge of this battery and a message informs the user when the battery is
discharged.
In the event of any incident or accident of any kind resulting from the use of the device, the user is required to inform the
manufacturer without delay, this procedure is laid down in Article.9 of the European Regulations No. 46/1997, which
implemented the EC Directive No. 93/42.
1.2.1 Danger of cross-contamination
Two different types of turbine sensors can be used with the device, one is reusable and the other is single-patient disposable. A disposable
mouthpiece is required in order to connect a patient to the spirometer. In order to avoid exposing the patient to the critical danger of
cross-contamination, the reusable flow sensor must always be cleaned before each spirometry test, and a new disposable mouthpiece
must always be used for each patient. The use of an anti-bacterial filter is at the discretion of the doctor. If a single-patient disposable
turbine is used, then a new one must be used for each patient.

1.2.2 Turbine
Disposable turbine
WARNING
For spirometry testing with a disposable turbine it is important to use a new
turbine for each new patient. The accuracy and hygiene of the disposable
turbine can only be guaranteed if it has been conserved beforehand in its
original sealed packaging
The disposable turbine is made of plastic and its disposal after use should
adhere to the local regulations and norms in force.
Reusable turbine
WARNING
The correct functioning of the re-usable turbine can only be guaranteed if it has
been cleaned in the correct manner and is free from foreign bodies which could
alter its movement. If the turbine has not been cleaned sufficiently this could
cause cross-contamination from one patient to another. Periodic cleaning
should only be done when the device is for personal use and will only be used
by one patient. The cleaning of the turbine should be performed according to
the instructions contained in the User’s Manual.
The following information applies to both types of turbine.
The turbine must never be held under running water or direct air pressure and must never come into contact with hot fluids.
Do not allow dust or foreign matter to enter the turbine sensor which may alter the correct functioning and possibly cause damage.
The presence of any impurities such as hair, sputum, threads etc. within the body of the turbine sensor may seriously compromise
measurement accuracy.
1.2.3 Mouthpiece
Any disposable mouthpieces included with the spirometer are only to be used as a reference guide to purchase the correct size
mouthpiece required. These mouthpieces are clean but not sterile. To purchase appropriate mouthpieces, generally either paper or
plastic, single-use/disposable, we suggest that you contact your local distributor.
WARNING
Use a bio-compatible mouthpiece to avoid any problems to the patient; unsuitable materials could cause the device to
malfunction, consequently providing incorrect test results.
The user is responsible for obtaining the proper mouthpieces for the device. The required mouthpiece is a standard type with an outside
diameter of 30 mm, is of common use and in general easily procured.
WARNING
To avoid environmental contamination caused by the disposal of used mouthpieces, the user must follow all the relevant local
regulations.

User manual
WARNING
Incorrectly applied oximetry sensors or damaged cables may cause inaccurate readings. Using a damaged oximetry sensor
may cause inaccurate readings, possibly resulting in patient injury or death. Inspect each oximetry sensor before use.
If an oximetry sensor appears damaged, do not use it. Use another oximetry sensor or contact your authorized repair center
for assistance.
Use only MIR oximetry sensors supplied with, or specifically intended for use with Spirobank II. Use of oximetry sensors not
intended for use with the Spirobank II may cause inaccurate readings.
Oximetry measurements may be inaccurate in the presence of high ambient light. Shield the sensor area (with a surgical
towel, for example) if necessary.
WARNING
Dyes introduced into the bloodstream (for example; to perform a diagnostic tests) such as methylene blue, indocyanine green,
indigo carmine, patent blue V (PBV), and fluorescein may adversely affect the accuracy of the oximetry reading.
Any condition that restricts blood flow, such as the use of a blood pressure cuff or a device for systemic vascular resistance,
may cause the inability to determine accurate pulse rate and SpO2 readings.
Remove fingernail polish and/or false fingernails before applying SpO2 sensors. Both may cause inaccurate oximetry
measurements.
Significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobins, such as carboxyhemoglobin or methemoglobin, may adversely affect the
accuracy of the oximetry measurement.
Optical cross-talk can occur when two or more sensors are placed in close proximity. Optical cross-talk may adversely affect
the accuracy of the oximetry readings. The danger can be eliminated by covering each site with opaque material.
Obstructions or dirt on the sensor’s emitter and/or detector may cause a sensor failure or inaccurate readings. Make sure
there are no obstructions and the sensor is clean.
Autoclaving, ethylene oxide sterilizing, may cause sensor damage. Do not attempt to sterilize the sensor.
Unplug the sensor from Spirobank II before cleaning or disinfecting to prevent damaging sensor or device, and to prevent
safety hazards for the user.
1.2.5 USB connection cable
Incorrect use or application of the USB cable may produce inaccurate measurements, wich will show very inaccurate values of the
patient’s condition. Carefully inspect each cable before use.
Do not use cables that appear to be or are damaged. If a new cable is required, contact your local distributor.
Use only cables supplied by MIR, specifically designed to be used with Spirobank II. The use of other types of cables can lead to
inaccurate measurements.

NOTE: This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by simply turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference with one or more of the following ways:
• Reposition the receiving antenna.
• Increase separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance.
1.4.3 (ESD) Electrostatic discharge sensitivity symbol
WARNING
Pins of connectors identified with the ESD warning symbol should not be touched and the connections should not be made
to these connectors unless ESD precautionary procedures are used.
Precautionary procedures are the following:
• Environmental procedures as: air conditioning, humidification, conductive floor coverings, non-synthetic clothing
• User procedures as: discharging one’s body to a large metal object, using wrist strap connected to earth.
It is recommended that all staff involved receive an explanation of the ESD warning symbol and training in ESD precautionary
procedures.
the electrostatic discharge is defined as an electric charge at rest. It is the sudden flow of electricity between two objects caused by
contact, an electrical short, or dielectric breakdown. ESD can be caused by a buildup of static electricity by tribocharging, or by
electrostatic induction. At lower relative humidity, as the environment is drier, charge generation will increase significantly. Common
plastics generally will create the greatest static charges.
Typical electrostatic voltage values:
Walking across a carpet
1.500 –35.000 volts
Walking over untreated vinyl floor
250 –12.000 volts
Vinyl envelope used for work instructions
600 –7.000 volts
Worker at a bench
700 –6.000 volts
If two items are at different electrostatic charge levels, as they approach one another, a spark or Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can
occur. This rapid, spontaneous transfer of electrostatic charge can generate heat and melt circuitry in electronic components.
A latent defect can occur when an ESD sensitive item is exposed to an ESD event and is partially degraded. It may continue to perform
its intended function, so may not be detected by normal inspection. Intermittent or permanent failures may occur at a later time.
Static dissipative material will allow the transfer of charge to ground or to other conductive objects. The transfer of charge from a static
dissipative material will generally take longer than from a conductive material of equivalent size. Some well known insulators are common
plastics, and glass. An insulator will hold the charge and cannot be grounded and conduct. the charge away.
Both conductors and insulators may become charged with static electricity and discharge. Grounding is a very effective ESD control
tool, however, only conductors (conductive or dissipative) can be grounded.
The fundamental ESD control principles are:
• Ground all conductors including people
• Remove insulators, substitute with ESD protective versions
• neutralize with ionizers
• ESDS outside the EPA (ESD protected area) to be in packaging having ESD shielding property
1.5 Product description
The Spirobank II is a pocket spirometer, with an optional pulse oximetry module. It can operate either in stand-alone mode or it can
be connected to a PC or to a printer using any one of several methods: USB, Bluetooth.

Spirobank II
Rev.1.6
Page 12 of 35
User manual
The device is specifically designed to measure a range of respiratory parameters and to monitor the saturation of oxygen in the blood
and the heart beat. A quality control check is carried out internally on the measured parameters and the device has an internal memory
sufficient for approximately 10.000 spirometry tests or at least 900 hours of oximetry monitoring.
Spirobank II is a powerful and compact measurement device, intended for use by a respiratory specialist or by a suitably trained general
practitioner. The spirometer calculates up to 30 functional respiratory parameters providing the pharmacodynamic effects, i.e. the data
comparison after the administration of a drug (PRE/POST) for a bronchodilator test or for a bronchial challenge test. A comparison
of data is made between POST (after-drug) and PRE (before drug administration).
The flow and volume measurement sensor is a digital turbine, based on the infrared interruption principle. This transducer ensures the
accuracy and the reproducibility of the measurements, without requiring periodic calibration.
The sensor features are listed below:
• Accurate measurement even at very low flow rates (end of expiration)
• Not affected by relative humidity and air density
• Shockproof and unbreakable
• Inexpensive to replace.
The turbine flow measurement sensor is available both in reusable and in single-patient disposable versions.
REUSABLE TURBINE
DISPOSABLE TURBINE
The following precautions must be observed to ensure that the characteristics of the turbine remain unaltered over time:
• for the disposable turbine: must always be substituted from one patient to the other.
• for the reusable turbine: always disinfect the turbine for testing from one patient to the next, to ensure the maximum level of hygiene
and safety.
For a correct interpretation of a spirometry test, the measured values must be compared either to the so-called normal or predicted
values which are calculated from the anthropometric details of the patient or, alternatively, to the personal best values from the clinical
history of the subject.
The personal best values can vary considerably from the predicted values, which are taken from “healthy” subjects.
Spirobank II can also be connected to a PC (or to another computerised system) to configure the instrument. All spirometry test data
including the related patient details stored inside the device can be transferred from the device to the PC and then viewed on the PC
(Flow/volume curves, spirometry parameters, plus optional oximetry parameters).
The connection to the winspiroPRO can be made via USB connection.
Spirobank II can perform FVC, VC & IVC, MVV and breathing profile tests, and calculates an index of test acceptability (quality
control) plus the reproducibility of the spirometry tests carried out. The automatic test interpretation follows the latest 11 level ATS
(American Thoracic Society) classification. Each test can be repeated as required. The best parameters are always available for review.
The normal (predicted) values can be selected from several normal “sets”. For example, within the European Union the majority of
doctors use the ERS (European Respiratory Society) predicted values.
Oximetry function (on request)
The oximetry sensor has two light emitting diodes (LEDs), one emits in the visible spectre and one infrared. Both lights then pass
through the finger and are “read” by the receiver. As these lights pass through the finger, a proportion of the light is absorbed by the
blood and by the soft tissue, in function of the concentration of heamoglobin. The quantity of light absorbed, at each frequency, depends
on the degree of oxygenation of the haemoglobin inside the soft tissue.

1.6.3 Oximetry alarms description
Spirobank II is equipped with audio and visual alarm indicators to alert the operator to provide prompt patient attention or to abnormal
device conditions. Spirobank II detects both patient and equipment alarms. Both, patient alarms and equipment alarms are identified
as medium priority as defined in IEC 60601-1-8 standard.
Medium Priority Alarms
Medium priority alarms signal potential problems with the equipment or other non-life-threatening situations. Medium priority auditiry
alarms are sounded as three beeps.
The intended operator’s position for correctly perceiving a visual alarm signal is 1 meter.
Alarm Summary
Spirobank II detects both patient and equipment alarms. Alarm indicators remain active for as long as the alarm condition is present.
WARNING
Verify all alarm settings and limits before oximetry test starts to ensure that they are set as intended.
Setting ALARM LIMITS to extreme values can render the ALARM SYSTEM useless.
A hazard can exist if different presets are used on multiple devices in one care area.
The alarm system provides medium priority alarm conditions for:
- Low and high SpO2level;
- Low and high Pulse Rate level;
- Sensor is unplugged;
- Finger is not inserted
- Low battery level.
Each alarm condition causes the generation of a visual alarm signal. The oximetry tests are intended not to be continuously attended
by an operator in normal use, so additional auditory alarm signals are generated.
Patient (physiological) Alarms
If patient SpO2or pulse readings are equal to or above the upper alarm limit, or if they are equal to or below the lower alarm limit, the
device will signal a medium priority alarm.

Spirobank II
Rev.1.6
Page 16 of 35
User manual
Equipment (technical) Alarms
- Sensor is unplugged
- Finger is not inserted
- Low battery level
Visual Alarm Indicator
When the alarm is activated through over limitation of physiological alarm, corresponding data area will view in reverse (video) mode.
When the alarm is activated by more than one physiological alarm condition, each parameter will be displayed in reverse mode.
If the alarm is triggered by a technical condition, the relevant warning message is displayed, for example:
WARNING
FINGER is not inserted
Auditory Alarm Indicator
Audible alarms can be heard in a quiet environment. The medium priority audible alarm has a "du-du-du" tone that repeats every 5
seconds. The acoustic alarm signal can be temporarily disabled while an alarm condition is in progress. The duration of the paused audio,
the time interval in which the alarm system or part of the alarm system does not generate an audible alarm signal, is a maximum of 2
minutes.
The sound pressure level of the alarm tone is about 55 dB, in complies with the standard.
Other beeps (acoustic signals):
• Pulse tone, beeps at frequency depending on Pulse Rate
• Sounds the next time the device is turned following an interrupted test due to low battery
The specifications for both the oximetry and for the cardiac pulse are the same regardless of which of the above mentioned oximetry
sensors is used.
