Claim 16:
17. The system of claim 16, wherein the at least one memory further stores executable instructions to urge the at least one processor to:
calculate the distance between the sensing element and the sensible element for each output voltage of the plurality of voltages received in the time interval;
calculate a change in the distance over the time interval based on the calculated distances;
associate the change in the distance over the time interval with a compression/decompression speed of the bag;
calculate a compression extent of the bag at the given instance by correlating the distance between the sensing element and the sensible element at the given instance to the compression extent of the bag;
calculate at least one of an inspiratory to expiratory time (I:E) ratio and breathing pace based at least in part on the compression/decompression speed of the bag;
calculate a tidal volume for each delivered ventilation by correlating the compression extent of the bag to a volume of breathing gases pushed out of the bag; and
calculate a minute ventilation by calculating a sum of the calculated tidal volumes for the delivered ventilations in one minute.
