I was lecturing and chairing a day on inhaler devices for respiratory physicians. We had a few of the new AIM devices available and these were great in helping us demonstrate correct inhaler device technique; and to provide the doctors with a 'hands-on' opportunity to learn how to do so themselves.

The AIM is a really useful means of training patients to use their inhalers properly, and should be an essential part of a respiratory clinician’s kit in the future if we are to improve compliance and concordance in our patients.

With both asthma and COPD the appropriate choice and correct use of inhalers is essential for the effective management of the condition and its symptoms. Anything that can help demonstrate correct technique is useful and it is here that the AIM machine can play an important part in helping to ensure that patients are using the right device, in the right way, to gain maximal benefit from inhaled therapies.

Centralized 12-Lead Holter data can be collected via the Mortara H12, 12-Lead Holter Monitor. The H12+ is capable of recording 24-hours of ECG data on Compact Flash Cards. Holter data is transmitted to a central database via a web-based data transfer application eliminating the need to send cards via courier and minimizing any potential for data compromise. The holter data is reviewed in accordance with the requirements of the study protocol by trained cardiac experts. Holter test results are available to site/CRO/Sponsor staff via a web-based data reporting portal.

The BT-12 12-lead ECG enables Full 12-lead electrocardiography with very low occurrence of lead artefact. Analysis and interpretation come as standard using the world class University of Glasgow interpretation algorithm which provides detailed diagnostic suggestions and evaluation of results. ECG measurements are captured and transmitted wirelessly for display in real-time and data is automatically saved for recall, reporting or printing. Transmitting ECG traces wirelessly is fast and safe with no leads to trip over or create artefacts from movement or electrical sources. The built-in display provides information on electrode contact problems, heart rate, battery status, communication status and digital pacemaker detection. The 12-lead resting ECG data is reviewed in accordance with the requirements of the study protocol by trained cardiologists.

Operator controlled selection of a 10-s sample trace, but can capture and store several minutes of 12-lead ECG recording
Visual electrode contact indication to assist operator
Wireless data transmission via Bluetooth (range:approx. 10m)
High quality multi-channel and 12-lead overview for viewing and printing
Print configurable 1 or 2 page reports

View traces as 1 x 12; 2 x 6 or 3 x 4 plus rhythm strip
Calculation of the heart rate with acoustic and visual signal
Full range of parameters are available (e.g. P duration,PQ interval, QRS period)
Automatic pacemaker detection
Rhythm analysis
