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

“…Patients were categorised based on their hospital treatment in (1) the intensive therapy unit (ITU) (requiring intubation) (n=65) or (2) respiratory wards only (n=45). Data from these two patient cohorts were compared with preacquired data from healthy controls (n=30).Results We have found a significantly increased respiratory rate (p=0.006) in ITU patients compared with the healthy cohort and also a significant decrease in the inspiratory time (p=0.01), expiratory time (p=0.005) and the total breathing cycle (p=0.008). …”
