About us

Diagnostica was established in 1983 by doctor Knut Henrik Falkvoll. Falkvoll is a pioneer who early started developing software for medical technical equipment in order to save time.  Since 2015 the company has been employee-owned.  From our office in Oslo, Spirare is designed and developed in close cooperation with Norwegian doctors. Spirares most important markets are Norway and Sweden, where we have approximately 40 % market share. 

What is Spirare? 

Spirare, derived from the Latin words for "to breathe" and "to think," represents a unified software solution that seamlessly collects and displays signals from ECG recorders and spirometry sensors in (almost) real-time on a PC screen. In the context of 24-hour blood pressure monitoring, Spirare plays a pivotal role in configuring the device, downloading and processing blood pressure registrations. The results are visually presented on the screen and can be conveniently exported as PDFs, printouts, or directly to the HIS/EMR for seamless integration and record-keeping.

Spirare's data processing capabilities offer valuable insights into a patient's variations over time, making it a versatile tool for healthcare professionals and patients alike.
