Abstract:
Empirical metabolic rate and oxygen consumption estimates for free-ranging whales have been limited to counting respiratory events at the surface. Because these observations were limited and generally viewed from afar, variability in respiratory properties was unknown and oxygen consumption estimates assumed constant breath-to-breath tidal volume and oxygen uptake. However, evidence suggests that cetaceans in human care vary tidal volume and breathing frequency to meet aerobic demand, which would significantly impact energetic estimates if the findings held in free-ranging species.

Abstract:
The volume of O2 exchanged at the mouth during a breath (Vo2,m) is equal to that taken up by pulmonary capillaries (Vo2,A) only if lung O2 stores are constant. The latter change if either end-expiratory lung volume (EELV), or alveolar O2 fraction (FaO2) change. Measuring this requires breath-by-breath (BbB) measurement of absolute EELV, for which we used optoelectronic plethysmography combined with measurement of O2 fraction at the mouth to measure Vo2,A = Vo2,m - (ΔEELV·FaO2 + EELV·ΔFaO2), and divided by respiratory cycle time to obtain BbB O2 consumption (V̇o2) in seven healthy men during in

Abstract:
VOC is a group of organic compounds that easily evaporate into the atmosphere and have various impacts on human health and the environment. Human exhaled breath and VOC is related to each other. The concentration of VOC differs from an abnormal condition to other abnormalities. However, there is limited information or study about VOC concentration in human exhaled breath. In line with this, this study aims to develop a VOC meter or a measurement system using a CCS811 sensor for human exhaled breath.

The tests available can be difficult to perform, especially if a person is symptomatic, leading to poor quality results.

Abstract:
Obese obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients potentially defend end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) during wakefulness via increased expiratory diaphragmatic activity (eEMGdia). A reduction in eEMGdia and EELV at sleep onset could, therefore, increase upper airway collapsibility via reduced tracheal traction. The aim of this study was to establish if eEMGdia is greater in obese OSA patients vs. healthy-weight controls during wakefulness, and to compare eEMGdia and EELV changes at sleep onset between groups as a function of stable breathing, hypopnea vs. apnea events developing within the first f

Abstract:
Breath sensor technology can be used in medical diagnostics. This study aimed to build a device to measure the level of hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, acetone and alcohol in exhaled breath of patients as well as healthy individuals. The purpose was to determine the efficacy of these gases for detection of obstructive lung disease. This study was conducted on a total of 105 subjects, where 60 subjects were patients of obstructive lung disease and 45 subjects were healthy individuals. Patients were screened by means of the Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) by a pulmonologist. The gases present in the ex

The goal of the present study was to examine the cerebral metabolism and vascular reactivity during extended breath-holds (ranging from 2 min 32 s to 7 min 0 s) and during a hypoxic challenge in freedivers and non-diver controls. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to measure the global cerebral blood flow (CBF) and metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2), and magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to measure the cerebral lactate, glutamate+glutamine, N-acetylaspartate and phosphocreatine+creatine concentrations in the occipital lobe. Fifteen freedivers and seventeen non-diver controls participated

Abstract:
Patient-ventilator synchrony has been the focus of attention in the field of mechanical ventilation for quite some time now. Toward that end, the modern ventilators are equipped with very sensitive pneumatic triggering mechanisms, which allow for minimal wasting of patient effort. The increasingly sensitive pneumatic triggers have the potential to cause autotriggering, where stimuli other than neural signals (eg, cardiac oscillations) can trigger the mechanical breath. Although autotriggering has been well documented in brain-dead patients, its existence is difficult to prove in patients who h

Abstract:
Conventional methods of measuring the single breath diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLcoSB) are based on the Krogh equation, which is valid only during breath holding. Rigid standardization is used to approximate a pure breath hold manoeuvre, but variations in performing the manoeuvre cause errors in the measurement of DLcoSB. The authors previously described a method of measuring DLcoSBusing separate equations describing carbon monoxide uptake during each phase of the manoeuvre: inhalation, breath holding and exhalation. The method is manoeuvre-independent, uses all of the

Because it is not possible to directly measure free radicals in the body, we approach that by measuring the by-products (breath ethylene) that result from free radical reactions.

Abstract:
Using in vivo measures of aerosol recovery (RC) as a function of breath-hold time (t) (Gebhart et al. J. Appl. Physiol. 51: 465-476, 1981), we estimated the mean diameter (D) of the pulmonary air spaces in subjects diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (n = 8) and in subjects with normal pulmonary function (n = 10). For each subject, RC (aerosol expired/aerosol inspired) decreased exponentially with t. Based on a model of the lung as a system of randomly oriented cylindrical tubes, the half time (t1/2) (i.e., the breath-hold time to reach 50% of RC with no breath hold) is

Background/Aims. Epidemiological evidence suggests a relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection with the development of autoimmune diseases. H. pylori elicit a chronic systemic inflammatory response with the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines. IL-10 is a regulatory cytokine that plays a central role in limiting host immune response to pathogen. Increased IL-10 levels were reported in H. pylori–infected gastric mucosa.

This work evaluates the use of a new flow meter to assess exhalation rate. A mobile indirect calorimeter (MIC) was designed and used to measure resting metabolic rate (RMR), which relies on the measure of O2 consumption rate (VO2) and CO2 production rate (VCO2). The device was produced from a commercially available and well-established indirect calorimeter and implemented with a new flow meter for the purpose of this study. VO2 and VCO2 were assessed by measuring exhalation rates using the new flow meter and O2 and CO2 concentrations in breath using the original colorimetric sensors of the ind

Objective. A rapidly growing home healthcare market has resulted in the development of many portable or wearable products. Most of these products measure, estimate, or calculate physiologic signals or parameters, such as step counts, blood pressure, or electrocardiogram. One of the most important applications in home healthcare is monitoring one’s metabolic state since the change of metabolic state could reveal minor or major changes in one’s health condition. A simple and noninvasive way to measure metabolism is through breath monitoring. With breath monitoring by breath gas analysis, two imp
