Able TriFlo Inspiratory Exerciser 600–1200 cc

The Able TriFlo is a simple, effective incentive inspiratory exerciser designed to encourage slow, deep breaths that help expand the lungs, mobilise secretions and support recovery. Three easy-to-see chambers give instant visual feedback as you inhale, helping you practise controlled breathing at approximately 600–1200 cc flow rates. Compact, lightweight and easy to clean, TriFlo is widely used after surgery, during prolonged bed rest, and in respiratory recovery plans as advised by a clinician. The set includes the base unit, detachable tubing and a comfortable mouthpiece so you can begin exercises right away.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What do the three balls mean?
A: They provide graduated inspiratory targets (approx. 600–1200 cc). Your clinician will set the starting level and progression.

Q: How often should I use it?
A: Usage is individualised. Many programmes suggest 5–10 slow breaths every hour while awake, but always follow your clinician’s plan.

Q: Should the balls shoot up quickly?
A: No. Aim for a slow, steady rise—this promotes deeper lung expansion. Rapid sucking can cause light-headedness and is less effective.

Q: Can children use TriFlo?
A: Yes, with adult supervision and only if a clinician recommends an inspiratory exerciser for the child.

Q: Will it help with mucus?
A: Deep, controlled breaths can assist secretion mobilisation. Your clinician may pair TriFlo with huff/cough techniques.

Q: Is it reusable?
A: Yes, for a single user. Clean regularly. Replace if cracked, discoloured, or if parts no longer fit securely.

Q: Can I lie down while using it?
A: Upright or semi-upright is best. If you must recline, follow specific positioning guidance from your healthcare professional.

Q: I feel dizzy after several breaths—what now?
A: Stop, rest, and breathe normally. Resume later with fewer repetitions or slower inhalations. If dizziness persists, seek advice.
