Airway and Tissue Loading in Post-interrupter Response of the Respiratory System - an Identification Algorithm Construction

摘要

The paper offers an enhancement of the classical interrupter technique algorithm dedicated to respiratory mechanics measurements. Idea consists in exploitation of information contained in postocclusional transient states during indirect measurement of parameter characteristics by model identification. It needs the adequacy of an inverse analogue to general behavior of the real system and a reliable algorithm of parameter estimation. The second one was a subject of reported works, which finally showed the potential of the approach to separation of airway and tissue response in a case of short-term excitation by interrupter valve operation. Investigations were conducted in a regime of forward-inverse computer experiment.
