Measurement of breathing in patients with post-COVID-19 using structured light plethysmography (SLP) by James Stockley, Brendan Cooper, Eyas Alhuthail, Andrew Coney

“…The effects on respiratory physiology are not yet fully understood, but evidence is emerging that there is much dysfunctional breathing reported but little information on tidal ventilation from the acute phase of the infection. Structured light plethysmography (SLP) is a contactless technique of respiratory function testing that measures tidal breathing parameters by assessing thoracoabdominal displacement.Methods In a postdischarge clinic, SLP was performed routinely on 110 hospitalised patients recovering from COVID-19 who had been screened for respiratory symptoms to confirm any respiratory changes occurring after the disease. …”
