Since its introduction in the 1950s, the forced oscillation technique (FOT) and the
measurement of respiratory impedance have evolved into powerful tools for the assessment …

Surfactant is a pivotal neonatal drug used both for respiratory distress syndrome due to
surfactant deficiency and for more complex surfactant dysfunctions (such as in case of …

Rationale: Respiratory resistance (Rrs) and reactance (Xrs) as measured by oscillometry
and their intrabreath changes have emerged as sensitive parameters for detecting early …

This review addresses how the combination of physiology, medicine and engineering
principles contributed to the development and advancement of mechanical ventilation …

Respiratory oscillometry (also known as the forced oscillation technique) is increasingly
contributing to lung function studies in clinical routine and research, as a result of its …

Respiratory system reactance (Xrs) measured by the forced oscillation technique (FOT) is
theoretically and experimentally related to lung volume. In chronic obstructive pulmonary …
