Features & Specification

FEATURES

High Proven Accuracy

Fitmate PRO uses the technology develpoed by COSMED over more that 25 years of manufacturing products for cardiorespiratory assement. Hardware components, algorithms, technical solutions have been chosen to guarantee the highest accuracy for any use.

No calibration required

Fitmate PRO doesn’t require any complex procedure except the room air calibration which starts automatically before each test. In addition automatic random controls during the RMR test guarantee accuracy and reliability of results over the entire duration of the test and eliminate the need of initial warm-up

Built-in fast thermal printer

The built-in thermal printer delivers high quality reports in few seconds. Any test can be also printed in a wide (A4, letter) size or color formats if printing from an external or PC compatible printer

Maintenance free

Fitmate PRO does not require specialized technical service. Ordinary maintenance requires few operations (O2 sensor replacement) that can be done by the user in just few seconds

Connettivity & memory capacity

Fitmate PRO has an internal memory capable to store about 300 tests. Connectivity with PC and printers is available through USB ports. Archive storage capacity becomes virtually unlimited when tests are stored in the PC through the SW package.
Fitmate PRO is also compatible with the other COSMED gas exchange analysis equipment, so that it becomes possible to exchange VO2 data from Fitmate PRO to them!

Battery main operating

Fitmate PRO is powered by rechargeable internal batteries (6 hours capacity) and can be used also continuously connected to the AC/DC. With an autonomy of circa 4 hours Fitmate PRO provides the freedom and the versatility for testing in any environment.

Amazing Software features

Fitmate PRO is supplied with a powerful PC software running under Windows XP OS. This Program allows user to download all the tests performed with Fitmate Pro for permanent data storage.
PC software also provides the instruments for monitoring the progresses (trends...) occurring from session to session. Fitmate PRO software is also compatible with a network environment to share data among multiple stations and integrate data coming from other COSMED equipment.

Exercise Prescription

Fitmate PRO has also an additional tool which will make Exercise Prescription easy and really effective. In fact it will be based on the individual current Fitness assessment and will follow the ACSM recommendations published in the "guidelines for Exercise Testing and prescription". The individual training program is automatically generated by the Fitmate PRO in the format of an editable report, that includes options for specifying the kind of exercise and the profile to improve (for cardiovascular, muscular and flexibility development). This report includes pictures to better describe how to exercise properly and safely

Cardiovascular (CV) risk analisys

Fitmate PRO testing allows the stratification of the CV Risk factors and the exposition to possible CV diseases. An assessment of fundamental importance as it provides information concerning your level of cholesterol, glucose tolerance, ability to sustain exercise, history of smoking, family and personal history of heart diseases

Daily caloric intake

The PC software also includes the extensive food database used by the USDA. It is the perfect tool for diet counselling as anyone can use it for the calculation of the daily food intake
