Abstract
A software program was written assisting calibration and measurement of the inductive plethysmography RESPITRACE. In 6 subjects calibration was carried out using both methods and a confirmation was found in the 20% area of dispersion. The use of only one measuring tape enables a very precise measurement of ventilation.
