Two recursive algorithms for tracking respiratory resistance and elastance over ventilatory cycles have been analyzed using the forward-inverse modeling approach and show that the optimal values of algorithm parameters reveal a bimodal character.

Leakage Estimation Using Kalman Filtering in Noninvasive Mechanical Ventilation

A solution to the problem of variable leakage estimation based on a Kalman filter driven by airflow and the pressure signals, both of which are available in the ventilation circuit, and practically all the untriggered cycles can be explained.

Respiratory mechanics, ventilator-associated pneumonia and outcomes in intensive care unit

The worsening of airway resistance in PCV mode indicated the possibility of early diagnosis of VAP and low lung compliance during VCV and low oxygenation index were death-related prognostic indicators.

Respiratory Mechanics Monitoring During Artificial Ventilation: Batch Algorithms and Their Accuracy

The most popular algorithms for tracking the variations of respiratory resistance and elastance over a ventilatory cycle were analysed in terms of systematic and random errors and a new algorithm was proposed and compared to the previous ones.

Nonlinear model for mechanical ventilation of human lungs

A new approach for tracking respiratory mechanical parameters in real-time

A new recursive least-squares procedure for on-line tracking of changes in viscoelastic properties of respiratory mechanics is proposed and applied to artificially ventilated patients and demonstrates that the proposed procedure provides data description satisfying statistical tests, such as residual whiteness, and reliable estimates of vis coelastic lung parameters even during substantial and fast variations in the respiratory status.

Estimation of time-varying respiratory mechanical parameters by recursive least squares.

An estimator that uses the recursive linear least-squares algorithm to fit the equation Ptr = RV + EV + K to measurements of tracheal pressure and flow is developed and is able to track rapid changes in respiratory mechanical parameters during bronchoconstrictor challenge.

On-line monitoring of intrinsic PEEP in ventilator-dependent patients.

A new recursive least squares method based on the first-order model of respiratory mechanics applied to experimental measurements obtained from eight ventilator-dependent patients ventilated with four different ventilatory modes concluded that the method is suitable for on-line monitoring of PEEP(i) in mechanically ventilated patients.

Lung Model Parameter Estimation by Unscented Kalman Filter

This work used unscented Kalman filtering (UKF) to estimate the dynamic nonlinear model parameters of the lung model by using the measured airway flow, mask pressure and integrated lung volume and demonstrated that UKF is a promising estimation method for the respiratory system analysis.

A Simulation Study of Expiratory Flow Limitation in Obstructive Patients during Mechanical Ventilation

A recently proposed symmetrical dynamic morphometric model of the human lung, based on Weibel’s regular dichotomy, was adapted to simulate different physiopathological scenarios of lung heterogeneity, showing that convective gas acceleration plays a key role in reproducing a negative relationship between driving pressure and expiratory flow.

A Comparative Evaluation of Three On-Line Identification Methods for Respiratory Mechanical Model

Three recursive algorithms for on-line identification of a respiratory mechanical model are compared both in deterministic and stochastic environments and presented in a unified general formulation.

Physiological interpretations based on lumped element models fit to respiratory impedance data: use of forward-inverse modeling

It is shown that inverse fitting of low-frequency data alone will not allow a distinction between frequency dependence due to airway inhomogeneities and frequency dependenceDue to tissue viscoelasticity, and inverse modeling is more amenable to sensibly separating estimates of airway and tissue properties.

Selected contribution: airway caliber in healthy and asthmatic subjects: effects of bronchial challenge and deep inspirations.

Airway caliber data suggest that the asthmatic smooth muscle resides in a stiffer biological state compared with the stimulated healthy smooth muscle, and inhibiting a DI in healthy subjects cannot mimic this.
