PDPS: A pulmonary data processing system for assessment of gas exchange properties by multiple gas wash-out

Abstract: A data acquisition and processing system for the analysis of inert gas wash-out tests is described. The described system is in clinical use on spontaneously breathing patients as well as on mechanically ventilated Intensive Care patients. It combines several analysis techniques with an aim to provide a deeper insight into the nature of existing ventilation inhomogeneity than the individual techniques alone can provide. The signals measured are the respiratory flow, the fractions of one or two indicator gases w… Show more

“…In the first stage (1964-1991), researchers focused on medical data analysis, including the analysis of patients’ physiological data, such as pulmonary data [ 18 ], cerebrum data [ 19 ], and renal data [ 20 ], as well as the analysis of medical images, such as electroencephalogram [ 21 ] and electromyography [ 22 ]. Medical data analysis studies in this period served a primary role in in the field of medicine, such as providing therapy for patients or assisting physicians with disease diagnosis.…”

“…We determined the end-expiratory volume during CV with the open helium wash-in and wash-out methods [4]. Firstly, ventilation was changed from one piston with ambient air to the other, containing ambient air and 5% He to wash-in.…”

“…In our clinic, SF6 gas is used to perform inert gas washout experiments in mechanically ventilated patients to study the end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) and ventilation inhomogeneity (HUYGEN et al, 1991;1993). Previous studies suggest that EELV measurement may be a powerful tool for monitoring the lung function of critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients and may improve the efficacy of therapeutic regimens at the bedside (HEDENSTIERNA, 1993; Correspondence should be addressed to Dr J. K. K. Kanhai; emaih jkkkanhai@hotmail.com MEYERS et al, 1975;NUMA et al, 1997;RIMENSBERGER and BRYAN, 1999;WAUER et al, 1998;BEYDON et al, 1996;EAST et al, 1988;GAUGER et al, 1996).…”
