Recently,“Technical standards for respiratory oscillometry” was published, which reviewed
the physiological basis of oscillometric measures and detailed the technical factors related …

This review provides the latest developments and trends in the application of fractional
calculus (FC) in biomedicine and biology. Nature has often showed to follow rather simple …

Background: It is well known by now that during open heart surgery many detrimental factors
are involved in lung injury. The influence mainly of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) …

Over the past two decades there has been a steady evolution in the practice of adult cardiac
surgery with the introduction of “off-pump” surgery. However, respiratory complications …

The mechanical impedance of the respiratory system defines the pressure profile required to
drive a unit of oscillatory flow into the lungs. Impedance is a function of oscillation frequency …

The Human Respiratory System combines emerging ideas from biology and mathematics to
show the reader how to produce models for the development of biomedical engineering …

Pulmonary complications after the use of extracorporeal circulation are common, and they
range from transient hypoxemia with altered gas exchange to acute respiratory distress …

The self similar branching arrangement of the airways makes the respiratory system an ideal
candidate for the application of fractional calculus theory. The fractal geometry is typically …

Study objectives Comparison of pulmonary outcomes after off-pump coronary artery bypass
(OPCAB) vs on-pump coronary artery grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass (CABG/CPB) …

The aim of this study is to make a literature review about the different techniques of
respiratory physiotherapy used after cardiac surgery and their effectiveness in reverting …
