Respiratory biofeedback significantly improved expiratory breath-hold consistency during image-guided interventions. This technology may reduce motion-related errors in procedures by providing reproducible breath-holds.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Respiratory motion is a significant challenge in image-guided interventions, potentially compromising procedure safety and accuracy.
  • Consistent breath-holds are crucial for minimizing respiratory-induced target motion during needle-based procedures.
  • Current methods for managing respiratory motion may lack sufficient reproducibility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of respiratory biofeedback in reducing breath-hold variability.
  • To determine if respiratory bellows belt signals can accurately measure target motion during procedures.
  • To assess the impact of biofeedback on patient breath-hold consistency.

Main Methods:

  • Phase 1: Patients performed breath-holds with and without respiratory biofeedback from a bellows belt, comparing variability in voltage readings.

  • Phase 2: Computed tomography (CT)-guided procedures were conducted with patients blinded to biofeedback, correlating CT target motion with belt signals.
  • Statistical analysis compared breath-hold variability and correlated motion data.

    • Main Results:

    • A significant decrease in variability was observed during expiratory breath-holds (P = .0083) with biofeedback.
    • Trends toward significance were noted for midcycle and inspiratory breath-holds.
    • A positive correlation between CT z-axis target motion and belt stretch variability was found, particularly in patients with lower sedation doses.

    Conclusions:

    • Respiratory biofeedback can enhance breath-hold consistency, aiding patients in achieving more reproducible holds.
    • The respiratory bellows belt shows potential for measuring target motion, reducing error and unpredictability in image-guided interventions.
    • This technology may improve the safety and precision of interventions affected by craniocaudal motion.
