What PulmOne does
PulmOne Advanced Medical Devices Ltd. is an Israeli-founded (2006, Ra'ananna) private medical device company that has developed and commercialized the MiniBox+, a portable, cabinless, and gasless pulmonary function testing (PFT) device. The product combines spirometry, lung volume measurements via the proprietary Partial Volume Method (PVM) with a 15.8 L reference volume, and single-breath diffusing capacity (DLCO) testing using an infrared high-speed gas analyzer, all within an 18-pound desktop unit suitable for any exam room. PulmOne's primary customers are office-based pulmonologists and allergists/immunologists who need complete PFT capability without the dedicated space, gas cylinders, and specialized technicians required by traditional body plethysmography. Secondary customers include hospital pulmonary labs, cardiology practices, pediatric pulmonary specialists, and multi-site pulmonary networks.
The business model is anchored on capital equipment sales of the MiniBox+ device (pricing undisclosed, quote-based), supplemented by recurring consumables (single-use 0.025-micron bacterial/viral filters), an included MiniBox+ Customer Care service program (factory warranty, virtual training, remote support, loaner devices), and optional add-ons including the NIOX VERO FeNO system (via partnership with NIOX/Circassia) and the MiniBox+ Cart workstation accessory. PulmOne distributes through direct field sales organizations in the US (Dallas-Fort Worth HQ), France (Nimes), UKI (London), Japan (Tokyo), and Brazil (Sao Paulo), plus the HTDK distributor in China.
The company has secured FDA 510(k) clearance (October 2016) plus Health Canada, TGA Australia, Japanese BSI, and Korean MFDS approvals, with Brazil and China launches following in 2023. Clinical evidence includes a CHEST 2021 multi-center study of 266 participants validating equivalence to body plethysmography, an Italian multi-center Clinicoecon Outcomes Res 2021 study, and over 700 patients tested across 11 medical centers in the US and Europe. The Scientific Advisory Board includes Harvard and Cincinnati Children's Hospital faculty. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed, and disclosed funding is minimal (~$525K cumulative via OurCrowd), suggesting the company has grown primarily through operational cash flow rather than large external capital raises.

PulmOne competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Medisoft: Belgium-based manufacturer of pulmonary function testing equipment (spirometry, body plethysmography, DLCO). Direct competitor to PulmOne in European pulmonology practices with overlapping in-office PFT solutions.
- Vyaire Medical: One of the largest global manufacturers of pulmonary function testing and respiratory diagnostics equipment, including body plethysmography and spirometry systems used in hospitals and pulmonary labs. Directly competes with PulmOne in the same PFT category and serves overlapping pulmonology and allergy customers.
- COSMED: Italy-headquartered manufacturer of cardiopulmonary diagnostic equipment including PFT systems, metabolic carts, and spirometers. Competes with PulmOne for pulmonology and primary-care PFT customers globally, with overlapping product offerings.
- MGC Diagnostics: US-based manufacturer of cardiorespiratory diagnostic systems including body plethysmographs, spirometers, and DLCO systems. Competes head-to-head with PulmOne for in-office and lab PFT customers across pulmonology practices and hospitals.
- nSpire Health: Manufacturer of pulmonary function testing and respiratory diagnostics equipment (spirometry, lung volumes, esophageal manometry). Direct competitor to PulmOne in the PFT device category, with a long-standing presence in pulmonology practices.
- Morgan Scientific: US-based manufacturer of pulmonary function testing and respiratory diagnostics equipment (spirometry, lung volumes, DLCO). Direct competitor to PulmOne for in-office and lab-based PFT customers in the US pulmonology market.
Broad incumbents
- Nihon Kohden: Japan-based global medical device company with a respiratory diagnostics portfolio that includes spirometry and PFT systems. Competes with PulmOne in the Japanese and broader Asian PFT market, but as part of a much broader patient-monitoring and diagnostics portfolio.
- BD (formerly CareFusion / Viasys): BD's respiratory diagnostics franchise (legacy Viasys/CareFusion) supplies PFT systems, body plethysmography, and consumables to hospitals worldwide. Competes with PulmOne in hospital and large pulmonary labs as part of BD's broader medical product portfolio.
- Schiller AG: Swiss manufacturer of cardiopulmonary diagnostics including spirometry, PFT, and ECG. Overlaps with PulmOne in office-based lung function testing, but operates as a broad incumbent across cardiology and pulmonary diagnostics rather than a PFT pure-play.
Emerging players
- Circassia (NIOX): UK-based respiratory diagnostics company focused on fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) measurement for asthma management. PulmOne's NIOX VERO integration partner; serves overlapping allergist and pulmonology customers for asthma workups, though with a focused, single-modality offering rather than full PFT.
