Volume acceleration as an index of respiratory drive during exercise.
In order to evaluate the applicability of volume acceleration (A(I)) at the onset of inspiration as an index of neuromuscular output, CO(2) rebreathing in six healthy subjects and incremental-load exercise in eight healthy subjects was performed while measuring A(I) and mouth occlusion pressure (P(0.1)). During CO(2) rebreathing, A(I) increased linearly with end-tidal CO(2) partial pressure and...
متن کاملNeural respiratory drive during apnoeic events in obstructive sleep apnoea.
For a given neural drive, oesophageal pressure during apnoeic episodes may differ from that during airflow, since inspiratory airflow and increased lung volume both reduce pressure generation. It was, therefore, hypothesised that diaphragm electromyography (EMG) may provide additional data to oesophageal pressure when used for the assessment of neural drive in patients with obstructive sleep ap...
متن کاملComputer Simulation of the Respiratory System in Forced Expiration
The authors present a model of the respiratory system in forced expiration as an answer to the unknown pressure pulse excitation. The model has the form of a voltage divider circuit, where gas flow volume velocity is the current reaction (or the volume is the voltage reaction). The analysis is presented in time domain. The model’s finding is realized in two main stages. In the first stage an RC...
متن کاملNeural respiratory drive in obesity.
BACKGROUND The load imposed on ventilation by increased body mass contributes to the respiratory symptoms caused by obesity. A study was conducted to quantify ventilatory load and respiratory drive in obesity in both the upright and supine postures. METHODS Resting breathing when seated and supine was studied in 30 obese subjects (mean (SD) body mass index (BMI) 42.8 (8.6) kg/m(2)) and 30 nor...
متن کاملNeural respiratory drive as a physiological biomarker to monitor change during acute exacerbations of COPD.
BACKGROUND Acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease have a significant negative impact on both patients and healthcare systems. Currently, there are no physiological biomarkers that effectively monitor clinical change or predict respiratory readmission. Acute exacerbations impose a change in the respiratory muscle load-capacity-drive relationship. It was hypothesised that la...
