A New Generation of Metabolic Technology, for Quick, Accurate, Intuitive and Affordable Indirect Calorimetry

Q-NRG is the first Indirect Calorimeter specifically intended for the measurement of Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) in patients who are mechanically ventilated or spontaneously breathing and for healthy subjects. Q-NRG is a unique product, resulting from the COSMED’s collaboration with world-class institutes in the field of nutrition support in intensive care units. This collaboration has made possible the development of an accurate metabolic system easy to use and at the same time resolving all typical pitfalls of the indirect calorimetry technology (no warm-up time, no gas calibrations, etc.).

FeNO measurement, fast, reliable and accessible also to the asthmatic patient

The new Vivatmo breath analysis devices from Bosch measure the fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) in human breath. The test is quick, painless, reliable, and the measured value provides an indicator of the inflammatory activity of allergic asthma. Vivatmo are maintenance-free, easy-to-use cordless measuring devices designed either for professional use (Vivatmo pro and Vivatmo me) or for home use (Vivatmo me).

A breakthrough in the field of exercise physiology and human performance assessment

COSMED is proud to introduce K5, the 4th generation of the most popular wearable metabolic system, and a breakthrough in the field of exercise physiology and human performance assessment. The K5 is the most innovative and versatile metabolic system ever created. The K5 reaps the benefits of more than 25 years of experience with metabolic systems. It features a list of new and unique characteristics that expand the scope of metabolic testing from clinical exercise testing to performance assessment.

The world’s first advanced Six Minute Walk Test with integrated spirometry

The Spiropalm 6MWT is a new medical device incorporating the latest design for portable spirometry and a unique tool for the standardized Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT). The Spiropalm 6MWT is a complete testing package. It measures minute ventilation and breathing pattern during walking, together with a fully integrated pulse oximeter, to monitor SpO2 and HR during the test. The Spiropalm 6MWT was recognized in 2013 as a "new way of measuring and reporting results for the Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT) by evaluating exercise capacity with integrated pulse oximeter and ventilation measurement" and received the prestigious ERS Product of Outstanding Interest award.
