Current definitions of the breathing cycle in alveolar breath-by-breath gas exchange analysis
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2023 Identification of the breathing cycle forms the basis of any breath-by-breath gas exchange analysis. Classically, the breathing cycle is defined as the time interval between the beginning of two consecutive inspiration phases. Based on this definition, several research groups have developed algorithms designed to estimate the volume and rate of gas ...

Monotone Signal Segments Analysis as a novel method of breath detection and breath-to-breath interval analysis in rat [PDF]
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2008 We applied a novel approach to respiratory waveform analysis--Monotone Signal Segments Analysis (MSSA) on 6-h recordings of respiratory signals in rats. To validate MSSA as a respiratory signal analysis tool we tested it by detecting: breaths and breath-to-breath intervals; respiratory timing and volume modes; and changes in respiratory pattern caused ...

Exhaled Volatile Organic Compounds during Inflammation Induced by TNF-α in Ventilated Rats
Metabolites, 2020 Systemic inflammation alters the composition of exhaled breath, possibly helping clinicians diagnose conditions such as sepsis. We therefore evaluated changes in exhaled breath of rats given tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Thirty male Sprague-Dawley
