1. INTENDED USE
Smart One is intended for home use by patients to monitor PEF (Peak Expiratory Flow) and FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1st second, VEMS). The device is intended for adult patients, adolescents and children over five years of age.
2. IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING INTENDED USE
PEF is the maximum speed a person can blow air out of the lungs after taking as big a breath as possible. FEV1 is the maximum volume of air a person can exhale from the lungs in one second after taking as big a breath as possible.
CAUTION: WHEN SMART ONE IS USED TO MONITOR LUNG CONDITIONS SUCH AS ASTHMA YOU SHOULD BE UNDER THE CARE OF A PHYSICIAN OR OTHER LICENSED HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL.
Medical studies have shown that regularly reviewing accurate measurements of PEF and FEV1 with a physician or other licensed healthcare professional may allow individuals with lung disease to better manage their conditions.
It is important to watch for changes from one measuring to the next, and to follow the actions you have to take according to the action plan provided to you by your physician or other licensed healthcare professional.
If you have breathing conditions such as asthma your physician or licensed healthcare professional may recommend that you measure PEF/FEV1 to watch your disease and discover if there are changes in your airflow. When you blow into the mouthpiece of the flow meter, the device will display a number. The faster you blow, the higher the reading.
This number tells you how well air is moving through the airways in your lungs. When you use SMART ONE regularly, you will be able to detect changes in your measurements, which will tell you and your physician or other licensed healthcare professional what is happening with your lungs.
These changes may require special treatment of your condition according to the action plan given to you by your physician or licensed healthcare professional which will tell you when
Smart One
Rev.4.0.1
Page 6 of 35
and how often to use your SMART ONE meter. They also will explain how your PEF and FEV1 measurements help them monitor your lung function and how well treatments are working.
3. DETERMINING YOUR PEF BASELINE VALUE
A PEF measure with a high value usually means that your airflow is good. The best way to determine what is a healthy PEF for you is to discuss this with your physician or other licensed healthcare professional. In fact the importance of any changes in airflow from one measuring to the next depends upon how much they are different from your baseline value you should reach when you are in healthy physical condition.
Your physician or other licensed healthcare professional will use one of two possible ways to identify your baseline value. The first method adopts the predicted value calculated according to the results of epidemiological studies of large groups of healthy subjects of your same age, height, sex, and origin. The second method adopts the personal best value you can reach when you are in the healthiest physical condition.
The MIR SMART ONE app can calculate the PEF predicted value, i.e. the expected value for healthy people, depending on age, height, sex, and origin. MIR SMART ONE app calculate the PEF predicted value that has been endorsed by ATS (American Thoracic Society): PEF predicted values are calculated according to Knudson, R. J., Slatin R. C., Lebowitz, M. D.,
Burrows, B., The Maximal Expiratory Flow-Volume Curve – Normal Standards, Variability, and Effects of Age, AM REV RESPIR DIS, 1976 113;587-600.
In this case, the predicted value becomes the baseline value for your treatment plan. If your physician or other licensed healthcare professional prefers this method, MIR SMART ONE app provides the calculation of the predicted PEF value.
It is important to know that these predicted values are average numbers for large groups of people. You may have a higher PEF measure than the predicted value and you may not be healthy. Or you may have a lower PEF than the average and be healthy.

6. HOW TO START USING THE MIR SMART ONE APP
Follow the instructions in the Maintenance section for correct battery insertion. Before connecting SMART ONE to a smartphone, install the MIR SMART ONE free app,
which you can download from Apple Store (for iPhone and iPad) or from Play Store (for Android devices).
Launch the MIR SMART ONE APP and carry out the following steps. These are one–off operations that do not need to be repeated next time you enter the app.
a) Authorize data exchange with the Health app, which is already installed on your smartphone. The user can decide whether or not to allow
the following data to be written to the Health app: height, weight, PEF and FEV1
the following data to be read from the Health app: height, weight, date of birth, gender.
You can allow or deny authorization for each parameter. b) Enter your personal details: date of birth, origin, weight, height, sex. The MIR SMART ONE APP will use these data to calculate PEF baseline value, and will use it
to assign a colored marker to your test (green, yellow, red). Please refer to the section DETERMINING YOUR PEF BASELINE VALUE for a clear understanding of the baseline value. If you don’t enter your data, a warning message will be issued.
Connection between SMART ONE and your smartphone is automatic. To check whether there is a connection, read the messages from the app.

7. HOW SMART ONE WORKS
SMART ONE is an electronic device for home use that accurately measures your PEF (Peak
Expiratory Flow) and FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 sec). PEF is the maximum speed a person can blow air out of the lungs after taking as big a breath
as possible while FEV1 is the maximum volume of air a person can exhale from the lungs in one second after taking as big a breath as possible.
WHAT IS THE SCIENTIFIC BASIS FOR PEF AND FEV1 HOME MEASUREMENT?
The first portable mechanical meter to measure PEF was introduced in 1959 by B. Wright. The widespread use of this device to monitor children greater than five years of age and adults has made it a popular means of tracking the degree of respiratory conditions in patients with asthma and other pulmonary conditions.
Inexpensive, small, portable, and easy to use electronic meters for evaluating respiratory conditions are now widely available. They offer several advantages including the ability to record PEF and FEV1, and to store and transfer data to a physician or other licensed healthcare professional.
SMART ONE provides a warning message if a test is not correctly performed, for example if instead of blowing out as hard and fast as you can, you exhale too slowly. This is another clear advantage compared to a mechanical peak flow meter that does not provide any message.
PEF and FEV1 are measured during the same exhalation. When the test is correctly performed, PEF is measured 0.10–0.15 seconds after the blow start, while FEV1 is measured exactly 1.0 second after the blow start. According to best current evidence from several scientific studies, research paper topics and clinical expertise, both PEF and FEV1 have proven to be good indicators of airflow function in health and illness that can indicate how well you are breathing, and can help you determine if there are changes in your airflow. Regular measurements of PEF and FEV1 provide evidence of disease progression.
The GUIDE FOR ASTHMA MANAGEMENT AND PREVENTION published in 2016 by GINA (Global Strategy for Asthma Management and Prevention) states:
Effective asthma self–management education requires:
Smart One
Rev.4.0.1
Page 12 of 35
Selfmonitoring of symptoms and/or lung function
Written asthma action plan
Regular medical review
The above indicates that when engaged in self–management of asthma, your lung conditions can be effectively monitored according with the written action plan prepared by a physician or a licensed healthcare professional.
CAUTION: A PHYSICIAN’S OR OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL’S ADVICE IS REQUIRED TO INTERPRET THE MEANING AND IMPORTANCE OF THE MEASUREMENTS REPORTED BY SMART ONE AND HOW TO DECIDE ON AN APPROPRIATE ACTION PLAN SMART ONE connects to a smartphone via Bluetooth SMART technology. Connection is automatic once the MIR SMART ONE APP has been installed on your smartphone.
Each measure of PEF and FEV1 is transferred from the device to the smartphone to be displayed. Please use the PEF colored indicator (green, yellow or red) following your
physician’s or other licensed health care professional’s advice. They will help you determine
how to perform the test accurately and recommend actions when decreased values are measured.
CAUTION: WHEN SMART ONE IS USED TO MONITOR LUNG CONDITIONS SUCH AS ASTHMA YOU SHOULD BE UNDER THE CARE OF A PHYSICIAN OR OTHER LICENSED HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL.
A higher value of PEF and FEV1 usually means air is moving easily through the lungs. When asthma attacks occur air cannot move easily through the lungs and lower values will be measured. It is generally recommended to take measurements as directed by the licensed healthcare professionals. SMART ONE should also be used when you are feeling symptoms of breathing problems in order to help you and your physician or other licensed healthcare professional determine how serious the breathing problem is and how well your treatment is working. Discuss with your physician or other licensed healthcare professional when and how often to use your SMART ONE meter.
7.1 Diary record
The MIR SMART ONE APP keeps a record of your highest reading of PEF and FEV1 for both morning and evening session, complete with date and time. Dots between consecutively
Smart One
Rev.4.0.1
Page 13 of 35
recorded readings are connected in order to form a trend graph. This on–going record is an important part of your asthma action plan.
The MIR SMART ONE APP can transfer the measured data to your physician or other licensed healthcare professional. When used properly, SMART ONE will help you and your physician or licensed healthcare professional monitor your asthma or other lung disease to provide the best treatment.
Reviewing the measured data can help you and your physician or other licensed healthcare professional check closely on your respiratory disease to provide the best treatment for you.
Because your smartphone has an automatic memory of hundreds of readings, you can take the device with you the next time you visit your physician or other licensed healthcare professional for a review of many readings.
