The respiratory inductive plethysmograph: bands versus jerkins.

S Spier, S England

    The American Review of Respiratory Disease

    Summary

    The respiratory inductive plethysmograph (RIP) measures breathing via body movements. The older jerkin RIP design is more accurate for prolonged studies than the newer separate band version.

    Area of Science:

    • Respiratory physiology
    • Biomedical engineering

    Background:

    • Respiratory inductive plethysmography (RIP) is a non-invasive method for measuring ventilation.
    • RIP utilizes inductance coils to track rib cage and abdominal movements.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the accuracy of two versions of respiratory inductive plethysmograph (RIP) inductance coils.
    • To determine the optimal RIP configuration for prolonged respiratory monitoring.

    Main Methods:

    • The study involved 12 subjects undergoing overnight respiratory monitoring.
    • Accuracy was assessed by comparing RIP-measured tidal volumes with spirometry.
    • Two RIP coil configurations were tested: a one-piece jerkin and separate bands.

    Main Results:

    • The jerkin RIP configuration demonstrated high accuracy, with 87% of breaths measured correctly.
    • The separate band RIP configuration showed lower accuracy, with less than 50% of tidal volumes being accurate.
    • The separate bands exhibited greater movement compared to the jerkin design.

    Conclusions:

    • The one-piece jerkin respiratory inductive plethysmograph (RIP) is recommended for prolonged studies due to its superior accuracy.
    • The separate band design's increased movement may compromise measurement reliability.
    • Further research may be needed to optimize the separate band RIP system.
