“SCHILLER is very excited to offer this oscillometric breakthrough technology to help improve the healthcare of the Premier membership patients” – Francesco Iacona, CEO.
tremoflo® is an innovative device employing airway oscillometry to monitor lung function and diagnose conditions such as asthma and COPD. Suitable for patients of all age groups, including adults, geriatrics, and pediatric individuals, the device requires only normal breathing through its mouthpiece for operation. Oscillometry, the underlying technology, assesses lung function by measuring respiratory system resistance and reactance through wave analysis. Built on the Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT), tremoflo® superimposes multifrequency airwaves onto the patient's tidal breathing to evaluate lung function accurately.
