Validation of Structured Light Plethysmography Against Spirometry in Children and Adults
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Structured Light Plethysmography and Pneumotachograph Spirometry for Pulmonary Disease. Completed, enrolled 41 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Measurements of Structured Light Plethysmography (SLP) using a chest wall movement based method will be compared to those obtained by spirometry using a flow based pneumotachograph method. This study will enable validation of SLP in children and adults by allowing direct comparison of simultaneous measurements of breathing sequences using the two measurement techniques. The investigators will also examine, in a group of normal adults, repeatability of the agreement between the two devices, and whether the agreement is affected by a change in tidal breathing parameters.
