Sterilization
- Recommended: cold sterilization (i.e., Cidex®)
- Alternative: autoclaved—RX117 Air Flow Heads should be cleaned at the lowest autoclave temperature setting; the life cycle will be about 10-20 cycles, depending upon temperature used.
Sterilizable 22 mm ID/30 mm OD air flow head for older pneumotach transducers TSD117, SS11L, and SS11LA. The material used in the flow head is polycarbonate and the screen is Stainless Steel. This detachable flow head is dishwasher safe.
Note
Newer pneumotach transducers TSD117A and SS11LB use RX117A-MRI Tiered ID/OD. The Tiered airflow head design allows for direct connection to multiple standard pulmonary ID/OD hoses and components without the need for couplers. Works with standard and -MRI transducers.
See More...Learn a technique—Trans-radial Electrical Bioimpedance Velocimetry (TREV)—that is more user-friendly and less invasive than the transthoracic method. TREV measures blood movement in the radial and ulnar arteries of the forearm via bioimpedance.
Topics Covered:
– Presentation and discussion of TREV
– Derived Indices Relevant to TREV
– Hardware setup
– Participant setup
– Recognizing good quality and bad quality data
– Demonstration with the grip anticipation test
– Review of results from other tests

Exercise physiology is the study of the body’s response to physical activity. Research in exercise physiology allows for insights in health and for a better understanding of the functions of the body at work. Here are some recent studies in exercise physiology that utilized BIOPAC tools for their research… Effect of exercise on electrocardiographic parameters […]
