Construction of anthropometric measuring chair (AMC) for lung function predicion
Balantič, Zvone ...
An anthropometric measuring chair (AMC) was constructed in order to predict lung function parameters (vital capacity - FVC and forced expiratory flow in the first second - FEV1) in normal Caucasian ...subjects. Design of a chair aimedtoward the fast and reliable recording of body dimensions, particularly of the human thorax. Static and dynamic measurements of thorax dimensions, armspan and sitting height were used to predict FVC and FEV1 with an accurracybetter than standard prediction equations based only on body height and age. Computer program for automatic calculationof FVC and FEV1 according to prediction equations was constructed in VisualBasic 4.0 software. The prediction values for FVC and FEV1 based on anthropometric variables could be used in paraplegic, disproportional and handicapped individuals, where standard body height is unobtainable.
