Limitations of Electric Impedance Plethysmography [PDF]
Electric impedance plethysmography has been offered as a substitute for mechanical plethysmography and would be particularly suitable for regions in which the mechanical method cannot be applied. A comparative investigation of mechanical and impedance plethysmograms, taken simultaneously from a finger or a forearm, revealed that, while the normal ...

Algorhythms for the analysis of unrestrained whole-body plethysmography in mice
This repository contains algorithms for analysis of unrestrained whole-body plethysmography timeseries from mice. The algorhythms were optimized to analyse breathing in mouse models of Rett syndrome. They were created to work with Spike2 8.22 x64 Unicode

Assessment of the peripheral microcirculation using computer-assisted venous congestion plethysmography in post-traumatic complex regional pain syndrome type I [PDF]
In complex regional pain syndrome type I (CRPS-I), edema of the affected limb is a common finding. Therefore, the changes in macro- and microcirculatory parameters were investigated to elucidate the underlying pathophysiology.

Respiratory Function Assessment through Kinematic Analysis of Chest Wall Movements: Effects of Position and Gender [PDF]
Background: The effect of position and gender on chest movements and respiratory volumes is controversial and investigated in only a few studies.Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of position and gender on the breathing pattern during

Asthma control in children: Body plethysmography in addition to spirometry. [PDF]
BACKGROUND There is a lack of agreement among measures of asthma control in children. In Central Europe, body plethysmography is additionally used for asthma monitoring. However, its value is still unclear.

Plethysmographic Peripheral Perfusion Index: Could It Be a New Vital Sign?
The plethysmographic peripheral perfusion index (PPI) is a very useful parameter with various emerging utilities in medical practice. The PPI represents the ratio between pulsatile and non-pulsatile portions in peripheral circulation and is mainly ...

Tidal airway closure in asthma and COPD
Functional closure of small airways can occur during tidal breathing above functional residual capacity (FRC) both in asthma and COPD patients, especially during exacerbations.
