Breathing as an Input Modality in a Gameful Breathing Training App (Breeze 2): Development and Evaluation Study

JMIR Serious Games, 2022
BackgroundSlow-paced breathing training can have positive effects on physiological and psychological well-being. Unfortunately, use statistics indicate that adherence to breathing training apps is low.

Work of Breathing into Snow in the Presence versus Absence of an Artificial Air Pocket Affects Hypoxia and Hypercapnia of a Victim Covered with Avalanche Snow: A Randomized Double Blind Crossover Study.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Presence of an air pocket and its size play an important role in survival of victims buried in the avalanche snow. Even small air pockets facilitate breathing.

Diaphragm Thickness and Contraction During Non-Invasive Ventilation: An Ultrasound Study

Children
Objectives: Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a widely used treatment for neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Data on diaphragm contractility and thickness during NIV is scarce.

Inspiratory pressure waveform influences time to failure, respiratory muscle fatigue, and metabolism during resistive breathing

Physiological Reports, 2023
Increased ventilatory work beyond working capacity of the respiratory muscles can induce fatigue, resulting in limited respiratory muscle endurance (Tlim).

Measurement of Work of Breathing in Infancy [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1981
Assessment of lung function in young children is extremely difficult unless sedation is given. If tidal exchange and intrathoracic pressure swings can be recorded, the severity of the respiratory problem can be measured by construction pressure-volume loops and calculating the work of breathing. The system we have used to measure tidal thoracic volumes

Respiratory mechanics in infants with severe bronchiolitis on controlled mechanical ventilation

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2017
Background Analysis of respiratory mechanics during mechanical ventilation (MV) is able to estimate resistive, elastic and inertial components of the working pressure of the respiratory system.

Circulatory effects of expiratory flow-limited exercise, dynamic hyperinflation and expiratory muscle pressure

European Respiratory Review, 2006
This article reviews recent research in normal subjects exercising with and without expiratory flow limitation at 1 L·s–1 imposed by a Starling resistor in the expiratory line, and in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), using ...

Differences in the elastic work of breathing of the pulmonary parenchyma in patients with bronchial asthma and COPD [PDF]

Терапевтический архив
Aim. To determine and compare the work of breathing to overcome elastic resistance (Ael) in patients with bronchial asthma (BA) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with similar changes in the elastic properties of the parenchyma in the same ...

Variables predicting weaning outcome in prolonged mechanically ventilated tracheotomized patients: a retrospective study

Journal of Intensive Care, 2020
Background Several studies have assessed predictors of weaning and extubation outcome in short-term mechanically ventilated patients, but there are only few studies on predictors of weaning from prolonged mechanical ventilation.
