Incentive spirometry

What is SMI?

Sustained Maximal Inspiration (SMI) is a technique used to prevent small collapse (atelectasis).

The SMI technique consists essentially of a slow,deep beath for a few seconds to work lungs.By increasing lung expansion and strengthening your cough effort, you will decrease the accumulation of unwanted secretions in your lungs.

Incentive Spirometry is goal--oriented exercise using SMI to promote bronchial hygiene in ridding the lungs of unwanted secretions. Your incentive Spirometer is designed to visually encourage you and allow you to monitor your own progress.

1)Take out the Breathing single Ball incentive spirometer from the box and connect one end of the  tube to the base outlet of the exerciser. It is best to perform an SMI in an upright(i.e,sitting)position. Your doctor or therapist will advise you which position is best for you.
2)As per your doctor or therapist's advice for respiratory setting, follow his or her directions. You may select an inspiratory flow setting by turning the spirometer top to match the black number with the black arrow. Choose a setting that allows you to pull the ball to the top of the Spirometer.
3) Place the mouthpiece in your mouth and from a normal resting expiration ,inspire at a slow yet sufficient rate to raise the ball off the bottom of the spirometer
4)Continue inspring to keep the ball afloat.The longer the ball is up,the greater your inspired volume will be.
5) If instructed to do so,hold this breath for a few seconds before exhaling.

Pictures of respiratory and asthma spacer device:

Calculate your inspirate volume,multiply your inspiratory time(in second)by the inspiratory folw setting(in cc/second).For example:
If you inspire a slow,deep breath at a folw setting of 200cc/second for 5seconds:
inspiratory time "flow setting= inspiratory volume 5sec" 200cc/sec=1000cc or 1liter

Avoid Fatigue and Hyperventilation
Allow time between inspiratory maneuvers.One SMI repeated with a break of at least one minutes between efforts will reduce fatigue and the risk of hyperventilation.
Follow your clinician's instruction carefully.
As your condition improves,you may rotate the flow selector to a larger number to achieve greater volumes.
Follow your clinician's instruction carefully.
