Abstract
An apparatus for the determination of the respiratory passageway resistance, including a breathing tube which incorporates a flow resistance and a pulse generator for subjecting the breath flow to higher frequency pressure or, respectively, current pulsations, as well as a pressure gauge for measuring the pressure in the breathing tube. The pressure gauge is constituted of an alternating pressure gauge coordinated with the pulsating frequency of a pulse generator. As alternating pressure gauge there may be utilized a common mechanical-electrical transducer which, for detection of the alternating pressure, has an electrical frequency filter connected thereto.
