The Micro+ Smokerlyzer is Bedfont’s latest and most advanced monitor. Long regarded as the benchmark for breath CO monitors used in smoking cessation programmes and research, the Micro+ has been upgraded to provide even more functions.

The Micro+ has the ability to monitor the mother’s CO levels in COppm (alveolar CO levels in parts per million) and %COHb as well as the levels passed on to the foetus (%FCOHb). The monitor’s colour touch-screen means that the user can switch between readings for the mother and foetus with a single touch, visually illustrating the risk to the patient and her child. As well as having the ability to display %FCOHb, the Micro+ can be used effectively in stop smoking programmes for a range of other smokers and situations. A motivational traffic light system of green, amber and red displays smoking status in relation to ppm levels. These levels can be switched between adult and adolescent settings to suit hard to motivate or low level smokers.

Bedfont’s Micro Smokerlyzer® has been used within clinical studies for over 20 years. The Micro+ is fitted with a superior sensor and anti-humidity filter and has a low hydrogen cross-interference, making it ideal for research programmes.
