Abstract: A method for measuring changes in respiration using measurement data representing a plurality of measured respiration cycles in the form of flow and volume of respiration, or flow and time of respiration, or time and volume of respiration, over a duration of time, and wherein such measurement data pertains to at least the expiration phase measurement of the respiration cycles, analyzing variability of the expiration phases of flow-volume, flow-time or time-volume measurements of the respiration cycles wherein the measurements are measurements over a duration of time, wherein the variability between the expiration phases of the respiration cycles is analyzed from the measurement data in the range of the first half of expired volume in the expiration phase of the respiration cycles. A corresponding arrangement and a computer program product are also presented.

Abstract: Various embodiments relate to a method, apparatus, system, and a computer program product for suppressing an oscillatory signal Sosc. In the method a composite signal S comprising said Sosc and a modulating signal Smod are provided and the S is high pass filtered to produce estimates of the Sosc and the Smod, wherein the estimate of the Sosc comprises first oscillations during a first state of the modulating signal and second oscillations during a second state of the modulating signal. A first bin associated with said first state and a second bin associated with said second state are defined and assigned for said first oscillation and the second bin for said second oscillation according to a state defined from the estimate of the Smod. A first average waveform for said first oscillations and a second average waveform for said second oscillations are formed and used to suppress the Sosc signal from the composite signal S.
