Non-invasive techniques for monitoring ventilation in infants are widely used in short-term laboratory studies but have not been evaluated in routine clinical settings. To determine whether respiratory inductance plethysmography (RIP) can provide reproducible measurements of tidal volume (V T ) in p

The ratio of expiratory time at tidal peak flow to total expiratory time (t ptef /t e ) correlates with conventional measures of airway obstruction. It is usually assessed using a facemask and pneumotachograph system which may be poorly tolerated in young children and hence limits the usefulness of
Respiratory inductive plethysmography (RIP) records movements of the rib cage (RC) and abdomen (AB). A calibration procedure is needed to determine their relative contribution to tidal volume. We evaluated the hypothesis that the relative contribution of the RC and AB could be defined from respirato
