Area of Science:

  • Physiological measurement
  • Respiratory monitoring
  • Software development

Context:

  • Inductive plethysmography is a non-invasive method for measuring respiratory function.
  • Calibration is crucial for accurate physiological measurements.
  • Existing methods may be cumbersome or require multiple tools.

Purpose:

  • To develop and validate a software program for the RESPITRACE system.
  • To simplify the calibration and measurement process for inductive plethysmography.
  • To assess the precision of ventilation measurements using the developed software.

Summary:

  • A software program was created to aid in the calibration and measurement of the inductive plethysmography RESPITRACE.
  • Calibration was performed on 6 subjects, confirming results within a 20% dispersion area.
