An incentive spirometer is a device used by a patient either in a hospital setting or as prescribed by a physician that measures how full your lungs inflate with each breath you take. While typically used to assist in keeping the lungs clear after surgery, it can also be used to assist in regulating breathing for asthma as well as helping someone strengthen and exercise their lungs.
