Respiratory disease has a great impact in the workplace, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality and frequent source of temporary disability. They have created several guides for estimating bodily harm by different scientific societies, but although they are widely used, are not without controversy. Criticisms are based on the low level of evidence of its recommendations (most come from expert opinion) and the lack of internal consistency.
The development of techniques to acquire respiratory signals is still in its infancy. While various signals such as pulse Oximetry are able to be acquired in real time and even be transmitted electronically. The development of equipment which allows keep track of biological signals associated with breathing and Household ventilation equipment capable of monitoring compliance monitoring and treatment, sometimes fails to join a group of pilot projects under. It is the task of specialists in the respiratory area, biomedical engineers and patients themselves: to design, build and test systems and machines that bring the future of telemedicine respiratory medicine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
