Analysis of tracheal and pulmonary continuous adventitious respiratory sounds in asthma
Lozano García, Manuel; Davidson, Clare M.; Jané Campos, Raimon (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyContinuous adventitious sounds (CAS) are commonly observed in obstructive pulmonary diseases and are of great clinical interest. However, their evaluation is generally subjective. We have previously developed an automatic ... -
Assessment of inspiratory muscle activation using surface diaphragm mechanomyography and crural diaphragm electromyography
Lozano García, Manuel; Sarlabous Uranga, Leonardo; Torres Cebrián, Abel; Jané Campos, Raimon (2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe relationship between surface diaphragm mechanomyography (sMMGdi), as a noninvasive measure of inspiratory muscle mechanical activation, and crural diaphragm electromyography (oesEMGdi), as the invasive gold standard ... -
Assessment of the non-linear response of the fSampEn on simulated EMG signals
Jané Campos, Raimon; Torres Cebrián, Abel; Lozano García, Manuel; Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference report
Open AccessFixed sample entropy (fSampEn) is a promising technique for the analysis of respiratory electromyographic (EMG) signals. Its use has shown outperformance of amplitude-based estimators such as the root mean square (RMS) in ... -
Combining bioimpedance and myographic signals for the assessment of COPD during loaded breathing
Blanco Almazán, María Dolores; Groenendaal, Willemijn; Lozano García, Manuel; Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos; Lijnen, Lien; Smeets, Christophe; Catthoor, Francky; Jané Campos, Raimon (2021-01-01)
Article
Open AccessChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the most common chronic conditions. The current assessment of COPD requires a maximal maneuver during a spirometry test to quantify airflow limitations of patients. ... -
Differences in acoustic features of cough by pneumonia severity in patients with COVID-19: a cross-sectional study
M. Davidson, Clare; Caguana, Oswaldo Antonio; Lozano García, Manuel; Arita Guevara, Mariela Lizzeth; Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos; Ferrer Lluís, Ignasi; Castillo Escario, Yolanda; Ausín, Pilar; Gea Guiral, Joaquim; Jané Campos, Raimon (2023-05-01)
Article
Open AccessBackground Acute respiratory syndrome due to coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is characterised by heterogeneous levels of disease severity. It is not necessarily apparent whether a patient will develop severe disease or not. ... -
Multichannel analysis of normal and continuous adventitious respiratory sounds for the assessment of pulmonary function in respiratory diseases
Lozano García, Manuel (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2015-07-15)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessRespiratory sounds (RS) are produced by turbulent airflows through the airways and are inhomogeneously transmitted through different media to the chest surface, where they can be recorded in a non-invasive way. Due to ... -
Neural offset time evaluation in surface respiratory signals during controlled respiration
Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos; Sarlabous, Leonardo; Lozano García, Manuel; Jané Campos, Raimon; Torres Cebrián, Abel (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe electrical activity of the diaphragm measured by surface electromyography (sEMGdi) provides indirect information on neural respiratory drive. Moreover, it allows evaluating the ventilatory pattern from the onset and ... -
Noninvasive assessment of inspiratory muscle neuromechanical coupling during inspiratory threshold loading
Lozano García, Manuel; Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos; Moxham, John; Rafferty, Gerrard F.; Torres Cebrián, Abel; Jolley, J; Jané Campos, Raimon (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-12-16)
Article
Open AccessDiaphragm neuromechanical coupling (NMC), which reflects the efficiency of conversion of neural activation to transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi), is increasingly recognized to be a useful clinical index of diaphragm function ... -
Noninvasive assessment of neuromechanical and neuroventilatory coupling in COPD
Lozano García, Manuel; Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos; Blanco Almazán, María Dolores; Moxham, John; Rafferty, Gerrard F.; Torres Cebrián, Abel; Jané Campos, Raimon (2022-07)
Article
Open AccessThis study explored the use of parasternal second intercostal space and lower intercostal space surface electromyogram (sEMG) and surface mechanomyogram (sMMG) recordings (sEMG para and sMMG para , and sEMG lic and sMMG ... -
Noninvasive assessment of neuromechanical coupling and mechanical efficiency of parasternal intercostal muscle during inspiratory threshold loading
Lozano García, Manuel; Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos; Torres Cebrián, Abel; Rafferty, Gerrard F.; Moxham, John; Jolley, J; Jané Campos, Raimon (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-03-04)
Article
Open AccessThis study aims to investigate noninvasive indices of neuromechanical coupling (NMC) and mechanical efficiency (MEff) of parasternal intercostal muscles. Gold standard assessment of diaphragm NMC requires using invasive ... -
Performance evaluation of fixed sample entropy for lung sound intensity estimation
Lozano García, Manuel; Nuhic, Jasna; Moxham, John; Rafferty, Gerrard F.; Jolley, J; Jané Campos, Raimon (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Open Accessung sound (LS) signals are often contaminated by impulsive artifacts that complicate the estimation of lung sound intensity (LSI) using conventional amplitude estimators. Fixed sample entropy (fSampEn) has proven to be ... -
Performance evaluation of fixed sample entropy in myographic signals for inspiratory muscle activity estimation
Lozano García, Manuel; Estrada Petrocelli, Luis Carlos; Jané Campos, Raimon (2019-02-01)
Article
Open AccessFixed sample entropy (fSampEn) has been successfully applied to myographic signals for inspiratory muscle activity estimation, attenuating interference from cardiac activity. However, several values have been suggested for ... -
Spatial distribution of normal lung sounds in healthy individuals under varied inspiratory load and flow conditions
