Comparison of Respiratory Resistance Measurements Made with an Airflow Perturbation Device with Those from Impulse Oscillometry

Figure 9

APD-measured respiratory resistance indicates higher respiratory resistance in the inhalation direction compared to the exhalation direction for one particular subject. The APD used for this measurement was uncalibrated. The dotted line indicates the line of identity. Points are averages of four trials. Error bars are three times the standard deviation. The offsets for the subject data are respiratory resistances that are located inside the respiratory system of the subject.
