| Research Abstract |
The goal of this proposal is to develop a training system to facilitate and coordinate respiratory muscle activity. This project proceeded in 4 stages:
1) development of the method to measure and analyze ventilatory response, respiratory muscle activity, and thoracic motion;
2) development of a respiratory biofeedback system to coordinate the activities of the respiratory muscles;
3) proposal of the method to facilitate respiratory muscle activity;
and 4) combining the above-noted results as well as developing the training program to enhance the facilitation and coordination of respiratory muscle activity. We then evaluated the newly developed training system.
