Since the publication of the ATS and ERS recommendations ^1/2 the measurement of exhaled nitric oxide offers an easy and reliable method to detect airway inflammation.

The DENOX 88 module supports the CLD ANALYSER series NO analyser to perform single and multiple breath test. The integrated adaptive flow control enables even pre-school kids to perform the ATS / ERS recommended single breath test.

The expiratory flow control may be adapted to custom specific needs. For non-cooperative patients the instrument offers the multiple breath test.

The continuous flow of NO free air reduces the infants work of breathing. The selectable continuous flow rate enables the adjustment to the specific needs of neonates.

The flexible concept of the DENOX 88 guarantees easy future hardware upgrades as well as adaptations for scientific research application.
