Bos Medicare Surgical 3 Ball Spirometer
A 3-ball breathing lung exerciser, also called a 3-ball incentive spirometer, is a device that can help strengthen respiratory muscles and restore lung capacity. It has three chambers with colour-coded balls that provide a visual incentive to the individual. The balls raise depending on the flow inhaled per second, with different colours indicating different flow rates: 600ml/sec, 900ml/sec, 1200ml/sec.
