Mathematical modeling of respiratory system mechanics in the newborn lamb.
In this paper, a mathematical model of the respiratory mechanics is used to reproduce experimental signal waveforms acquired from three newborn lambs. As the main challenge is to determine specific lamb parameters, a sensitivity analysis has been realized to find the most influent parameters, which are identified using an evolutionary algorithm. Results show a close match between experimental a...
متن کاملA Model of the Respiratory System in the Newborn Infant
A dynamic mathematical model is presented which successfully simulates the respiratory control system of the newborn infant in different physiological conditions. The primary objective in constructing this model has been to provide a simulation aid in the investigation of maturation of the respiratory system, and the respiratory disorders during the newborn period, without the need for invasive...
متن کاملMechanics of the respiratory system in the newborn tammar wallaby.
We investigated whether the mechanical properties of the respiratory system represent a major constraint to spontaneous breathing in the newborn tammar wallaby Macropus eugenii, which is born after a very short gestation (approximately 28 days, birth mass approximately 380 mg). The rate of oxygen consumption (V(O(2))) through the skin was approximately 33 % of the total V(O(2)) at day 1 and app...
متن کاملMathematical modeling of cochlear mechanics.
The recent discovery of oto-acoustic emissions [see Zurek, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 78, 340-344 (1985)] and the newer measures of the micromechanics of the inner ear have generated renewed interest in quantitative descriptions of the biomechanics of the cochlea. Active elements (mechanical force generators) are thought to be essential for producing the high sensitivity and sharp tuning typically ass...
متن کاملEffects of feeding on respiratory mechanics of healthy newborn infants.
In previous studies of the respiratory mechanics of newborn infants no attempt has been made to relate the results to feeding, though Barrie (1968) has described increased intra-oesophageal pressure swings following tube-feeding. In the present paper a technique for the study of neonatal respiratory mechanics is described, and the effects of feeding on the respiratory work and pulmonary complia...
