| Popis: |
A respiratory measurement system composed of pressure and airflow sensors was introduced to precisely control the respiratory condition during animal experiments. The flow sensor was a hot-wire thermal airflow meter with a directional detection and airflow temperature change compensation function based on MEMS technology, and the pressure sensor was a commercially available one also produced by MEMS. The artificial dead space in the system was minimized to the value of 0.11 mL by integrating the two sensors on the same plate (26.0 mm × 15.0 mm). A balloon made of a silicone resin with a hardness of A30 was utilized as the simulated lung system and applied to the elasticity evaluation of the respiratory system in a living rat. The inside of the respiratory system was normally pressurized without damage, and we confirmed that the developed system was able to evaluate the elasticity of the lung tissue in the rat by using the pressure value obtained at the quasi-static conditions in the case of the ventilation in the animal experiments. |
