Abstract
A system for obtaining respiratory flow rate waveforms, tidal volume, minute volume, respiration rate, inhalation time and exhalation time i s described. The system is based on a microcomputer with analog-to-dig ital converter board. System software allows calibration, data acquisi tion and data analysis. Data can be obtained automatically at fixed ti me intervals. The system is inexpensive and reliable.
