  • Title: Calibration of some Wright peak flow meters.
    Author: Fisher J, Shaw A.
    Journal: Br J Anaesth; 1980 Apr; 52(4):461-4. PubMed ID: 6445741.
    Abstract:
    The performance of Wright peak flow meters is described using an absolute and precise calibration method. This showed errors as great as 25% with the peak flow meter and 40% with the mini peak flow meter. At large flow rates errors were less. The expected variation between individual peak flow meters was about 12%. The expected variation between individual mini peak flow meters was between 16% and 22%, depending on flow rate.
