Development of a Flow Sensor for Monitoring Human Respiration
نویسنده
چکیده
Various technologies have been used to measure airway flow for human respiration. This paper presents a flow sensor (pneumotach} that is capable of continuous, bi-directional airway flow measurement proximal to the patient and used in a critical care environment. This paper presents some of the findings of the research that was done in the development of a n~w flow sensor for long term flow monitoring in the critical care environment.

متن کاملSMART ROOM CARBON MONOXIDE MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is the most abundant air pollutant gas and accumulates rapidly to dangerous concentrations even in areas that seem to be well ventilated. Carbon monoxide detectors/alarm systems exist but people who are old, hearing impaired, partially sighted or heavy sleepers may not get the warning or find it difficult to wake up and get out in the event of dangerous concentration of CO ...
