Introduction

Respiration can be measured in various ways, but is usually measured with a respiration belt strapped around the abdomen or chest. The belt has a transducer, which measures the change in thoracic or abdominal circumference. For more information on measuring respiration with BIOPAC, see the instructions or webinar.
