Limitations of Electric Impedance Plethysmography [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 1954
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

open access: yes, 2022
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]

open access: yes, 2001
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]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering
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]

open access: yes, 2019
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?

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
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 ...

Forearm Volume Changes Estimated by Photo-Plethysmography During an Original Candlestick/Prayer Maneuver in Patients With Suspected Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Objective: Hemodynamic investigations in thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) remain difficult, even in trained hands. Results are generally reported as either presence or absence of venous compression.

Measuring Ventilatory Activity with Structured Light Plethysmography (SLP) Reduces Instrumental Observer Effect and Preserves Tidal Breathing Variability in Healthy and COPD

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
The use of a mouthpiece to measure ventilatory flow with a pneumotachograph (PNT) introduces a major perturbation to breathing (“instrumental/observer effect”) and suffices to modify the respiratory behavior.

Tidal airway closure in asthma and COPD

open access: yesMonaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2016
Functional closure of small airways can occur during tidal breathing above functional residual capacity (FRC) both in asthma and COPD patients, especially during exacerbations.
