[China Pharmaceutical Network Technology News] It is well known that spirometry is mainly used to measure vital capacity. It is widely used to diagnose various chronic and acute respiratory diseases, including asthma, obstructive sleep apnea and respiratory insufficiency. So what happens when the most popular 3D printing technology and the spirometer "collision"? 
Recently, researchers at the University of Surrey in the United Kingdom developed the world's first Sneezometer using 3D printing technology. It is actually an airflow sensor or a spirometer, but it has sufficient sensitivity. Measure the speed of a sneeze. Researchers say the sneeze gauge can be used to diagnose a variety of respiratory diseases, and the sneeze gauges are twice as fast and more sensitive than other available devices.
It is well known that spirometers are mainly used to measure vital capacity and are widely used to diagnose various chronic and acute respiratory diseases, including asthma, obstructive sleep apnea and respiratory insufficiency. However, current spirometer devices are expensive, cumbersome, and lack the required sensitivity in some challenging situations, such as neonatal care. The sneeze gauge developed by the University of Surrey can be used not only when the patient sneezes, but actually an ultra-sensitive spirometer that measures air flow through the patient's lungs. When the patient breathes through a fist-sized instrument, the sneeze gauge can quickly and sensitively detect small fluctuations in the air flow that may be caused by the disease. Because there is no such instrument before, researchers are still exploring its diagnostic capabilities.
According to Dr. David Birch of the University of Surrey, “In the current world, breathing disorders are very common. In the UK alone, 1 in 12 people are receiving asthma treatment. Diagnosis and monitoring of respiratory diseases. It is the key to proper treatment. We have now developed a very simple, low-cost, non-invasive diagnostic solution that will make it easier for doctors to diagnose such diseases.
Dr. Paul Nathan, co-inventor of the device, added: "We have created a high-sensitivity, high-accuracy portable spirometer that is sensitive enough to catch the sneezing speed. What is even more impressive is that Innovative devices were invented using simple 3D printing technology, and all prototypes in each process were printed around their internal electronics."
In large cities in some developing countries, such as Beijing and New Delhi, respiratory diseases are particularly prevalent due to air quality problems. Currently, air pollution ranks among the top 10 health risks facing humans worldwide, according to the World Health Organization. More than 7 million people died prematurely due to air pollution,†said Dr. Prashant Kumar of the University of Surrey. “This convenient and sensitive diagnostic device allows for the diagnosis and quality of these diseases at an early stage.â€
It is understood that this sneeze measuring instrument is currently being tested at Kings College Hospital in London, where the device can be used to help diagnose a range of diseases, from neonatal problems to pet diseases.
Dr. Manasi Nandi, Senior Lecturer in Integrated Pharmacology at King's College London, commented: "The ability to measure airflow sensitively and to find other information in one breath is very interesting from a research or clinical perspective. In routine testing I can't do this. At the moment we have started using it to simulate testing asthma."
The new device is expected to enter the clinic as soon as possible in 2018.

Freeze-dried powder is a sterile powder injection obtained by freezing the liquid medicine into a solid state in a sterile environment, and subliming and drying the water in a vacuum. Freeze-dried powder is composed of a bottle of high-purity and high-active biological protein freeze-dried powder and a high-purity liquid essence. When using, it needs to be connected with a patented vacuum to reconstitute the freeze-dried powder and the essence to activate the biological protein activity.
