The intended use of the device is to provide data for initial validation of respiratory mechanics models without the need to test unhealthy and/or fragile subjects, or the need for invasive test methods. The device is used in conjunction with a venturi-based flow sensor, to measure pressure, flow, and breath tidal volume. The device simulates the pressure and flow profiles of a person who has COPD including the non-linear increased resistance to end-exhalation and gas trapping.
