A portable forced oscillation device for respiratory home monitoring.
The increase in the prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases has resulted in a rise in health services provided at home. The forced oscillation technique (FOT) proves to be a useful tool when it is desired to assess lung function noninvasively, and particularly for patients in whom spirometry cannot be applied. As no portable FOT device is currently available, the aim of this study was to des...
متن کاملA Low-Power and Portable Biomedical Device for Respiratory Monitoring with a Stable Power Source
Continuous respiratory monitoring is an important tool for clinical monitoring. Associated with the development of biomedical technology, it has become more and more important, especially in the measuring of gas flow and CO2 concentration, which can reflect the status of the patient. In this paper, a new type of biomedical device is presented, which uses low-power sensors with a piezoresistive ...
متن کاملPediatric reference values for respiratory resistance measured by forced oscillation.
OBJECTIVES To determine, in North American children, reference values for respiratory resistance measurements by the forced oscillation (Rfo) technique and to examine whether sitting height, as index of truncal length, is a better determinant of resistance, less influenced by race and gender, than standing height. DESIGN/SETTING A prospective cross-sectional study of healthy nonobese children...
متن کاملA Novel Portable Scissors-Type Fruit Picking Device
At present, the fruit picking in most countries still largely relies on manual operation. Manual fruit picking can protect the fruits from damage during the operation process. However, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and poses a potential safety risk to the workers while working at heights not reachable. Therefore, a variety of fruit picking machines and platforms have been developed ...
متن کاملForced oscillation assessment of respiratory mechanics in ventilated patients
The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a method for non-invasively assessing respiratory mechanics that is applicable both in paralysed and non-paralysed patients. As the FOT requires a minimal modification of the conventional ventilation setting and does not interfere with the ventilation protocol, the technique is potentially useful to monitor patient mechanics during invasive and noninvas...
