‘We know that tissue samples cannot be taken regularly, but liquid biopsy is easy to take, it is simply a sample of blood. And it gives you real-time information.’

‘Even low levels of ctDNA could have given an indication of the coming progression in the follow-up.’

‘There is much more diagnostic power in the absolute quantification.’

Active and passive mattress in one HYBRIMATT

Microclimate maintenance helps with thermoregulation by air flow and a permeable cover.

The 2-cell alternating therapy system of HybriMatt provides periodic pressure reduction.

Viscoelastic foam reacts to body heat and body weight.

The heel section has a 7-degree slope that reduces pressure in this high-risk area.

MATTRESS PORTFOLIO

Taking a breath might seem simple, but for some, lung function presents a complex puzzle: hidden breathing problems can be a concern for anyone. This is why early detection is key, and that’s where the Medikro Spirometer comes in. This valuable tool, especially the Medikro Pro version, offers a clear picture of lung function, making it a game-changer for healthcare professionals. Forget traditional spirometry’s limitations. The Medikro Pro offers cutting-edge technology, delivering highly accurate lung function measurements. This empowers healthcare professionals to confidently diagnose and monitor respiratory issues like asthma, COPD, and restrictive lung disease - leading to personalized treatment plans and improved patient outcomes.

All of this while prioritizing ease of use : its disposable flow sensors eliminate the need for sterilization, minimizing the time spent and reducing the risk of contamination, as well as its easy connection to PC software featuring an intuitive interface and clear result visualization for quick and efficient analysis. All that being said, Medikro Spirometer, particularly the Medikro Pro model, offers a valuable tool for both healthcare professionals and patients. With its precision, efficiency, and patient-centric design, it paves the way for early detection, accurate diagnosis, and ultimately, a clearer path to easier breathing.
