Noninvasive assessment of inspiratory muscle neuromechanical coupling during inspiratory threshold loading
(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 coupling and mechanical efficiency of parasternal intercostal muscle during inspiratory threshold loading
(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
(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 ... -
Spatial distribution of normal lung sounds in healthy individuals under varied inspiratory load and flow conditions
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessRespiratory sounds yield pertinent information about respiratory function in both health and disease. Normal lung sound intensity is a characteristic that correlates well with airflow and it can therefore be used to quantify ... -
Surface mechanomyography and electromyography provide non-invasive indices of inspiratory muscle force and activation in healthy subjects
(Nature, 2018-11-16)
Article
Open AccessThe current gold standard assessment of human inspiratory muscle function involves using invasive measures of transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) or crural diaphragm electromyography (oesEMGdi). Mechanomyography is a ...
