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 کاملAn auto-continuous positive airway pressure device controlled exclusively by the forced oscillation technique.
The forced oscillation technique (FOT) has been demonstrated to be a very sensitive tool for the assessment of upper airway obstruction during nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The present study was designed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of a novel auto-CPAP device based exclusively on the FOT. Following manual CPAP titration, 18...
متن کاملEvaluation of a new electronic spirometer: the vitalograph "Escort" spirometer.
BACKGROUND The "Escort" spirometer is a lightweight, hand held spirometer employing a Fleisch pneumotachograph. Measurements of forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and peak expiratory flow (PEF) are obtained from a single FVC manoeuvre. Results are displayed on a small liquid crystal display, but there is no graphical display. The performance of the Escor...
متن کاملOscillation criteria for a forced second order nonlinear dynamic equation
In this paper, we will establish some new interval oscillation criteria for forced second-order nonlinear dynamic equation (p(t)x(t)) + q(t)|xσ(t)|γsgn x(t) = f(t), t ∈ [a, b], on a time scale T where γ ≥ 1. As a special case when T = R our results not only include the oscillation results for second-order differential equations established by Wong (J. Math. Anal. Appl., 231 (1999) 233-240) and ...
