Project Summary This Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I application proposes the development and trial of a novel non-invasive real-time breathing sensor – pneuRIP- to show the beneficial effects of respiratory biofeedback on yoga. PneuRIP will be employed to monitor and improve asana (posture) and pranayama (breathing) in yoga in youth with chronic pain. The sensor consists of two inductive bands worn around the chest and abdomen that measure and differentiate diaphragmatic and chest breathing through Respiratory Inductance Plethysmography (RIP). Readings are recorded and analyzed on a small chest-worn unit and wirelessly transmitted to an iPad. Measures include the phase angle between the chest and abdomen; percentage breathing through the ribcage; respiratory rate; and labored breathing index. This sensor takes little time to set up and readings are provided instantaneously. The first part of the proposal will develop the biofeedback software. The biofeedback component will be related to the synchrony between diaphragmatic and chest breathing, and the relative depth of breathing. This information will be presented to the user visually on an iPad screen in the form of 2 moving bars – one corresponding to the chest and one to the belly. In the second part of the study, we will test the pneuRIP with biofeedback with 20 youth with pain enrolled in an interdisciplinary pediatric chronic pain program in a large pediatric hospital receiving yoga as one of the therapies. The yoga regimen is 8 sessions, once per week. Subjects will be randomized into two groups: one receiving instruction only on synchronous breathing; the second group will receive biofeedback in addition. Outcomes will be standardized measures of pain (recorded before and after entire regimen) and breathing indices (recorded during each session). Outcomes will inform the feasibility of using real-time biofeedback in yoga with a non-invasive respiratory monitor.

项目概要 该小型企业技术转让 (STTR) 第一阶段申请提出 开发和试验新型非侵入式实时呼吸传感器 – pneuRIP – 展示 呼吸生物反馈对瑜伽的有益影响。 PneuRIP 将用于监控 并改善患有慢性疼痛的青少年的瑜伽体式（姿势）和调息（呼吸）。这 传感器由佩戴在胸部和腹部的两个感应带组成，用于测量和 通过呼吸电感区分膈式呼吸和胸式呼吸 体积描记法（RIP）。在胸前佩戴的小型装置上记录和分析读数 无线传输至 iPad。测量值包括胸部和胸部之间的相位角 腹部;通过胸腔呼吸的百分比；呼吸频率；和呼吸困难 指数。该传感器的设置时间很短，并且可以立即提供读数。 该提案的第一部分将开发生物反馈软件。生物反馈部分 与膈式呼吸和胸式呼吸的同步性有关，相对 呼吸深度。该信息将在 iPad 屏幕上直观地呈现给用户 2 个移动杆的形式 – 一根对应于胸部，一根对应于腹部。 在研究的第二部分中，我们将通过生物反馈对 20 名青少年进行 pneuRIP 测试 疼痛参加了一家大型儿科医院的跨学科儿科慢性疼痛项目 接受瑜伽作为治疗方法之一。瑜伽疗程为 8 次，每周一次。 受试者将被随机分为两组：一组仅接受同步指导 呼吸;第二组将另外接受生物反馈。结果将标准化 疼痛测量（记录整个疗程之前和之后）和呼吸指数（记录 在每个会话期间）。结果将表明在瑜伽中使用实时生物反馈的可行性 带有无创呼吸监测仪。
