LCI to detect early peripheral airway damage in CF patients LCI is a promising marker in the field of cystic fibrosis (CF). The detection of early-stage lung disease is critical to guide clinical treatment and improve patient’s outcome.

Greater sensitivity than spirometry. LCI is a more sensitive marker of abnormalities than FEV1, allowing early detection of disease in the smaller airways, down to small children.

SF6 true insoluble gas resolves typical LCI pitfalls. Thanks to the use of SF6 tracer gas the measurement is not affected by N2 back diffusion, O2 influence on breathing pattern and possible inspiratory leakages.

Outstanding accuracy.The patented fast-responding photo-acoustic infrared gas analyser guarantees high sensitivity, accuracy and reliability.

Child-friendly measurement technique. A simple and fast manoeuvre performed while the patient is breathing normally through the measuring device.

Simplified workflow.OMNIA user interface and its workflow management have been designed to simplify procedures and to reduce testing time.

High patient comfort.The extremely low resistance from the breathing circuit and the absence of uncomfortable gas mixture (100% O2) ensures the perfect patient experience.

Reduced downtime.The advanced wash-in wash-out technique makes the test faster than traditional methods and eliminates the needs for waiting time between manoeuvres or in case of manoeuvre failure.
