Zusammenfassung: | An apparatus (20) for assessing pulmonary ventilation includes data acquisition circuitry (21) with a first transmission coil, a second transmission coil, a first receive coil, and a second receive coil to generate pulmonary ventilition data defining three degrees of motion of an ambulatory patient. A portable data processing unit worn by the patient is connected to the data acquisition circuitry (21) and process the pulmonary ventilation data to produce calculated parameters, such as breathing frequency, total pulmonary ventilation, inspiratory breathing time, expiratory breathing time, and total breathing time. |
