Abstract: A method, device, and computer program product for improving accuracy of a respiratory gas measurement from a subject ventilated at a predetermined respiration rate through a ventilator. A respiratory gas measurement value is acquired within a first expiration period of the subject, thereby to obtain a first measurement value 32. The ventilator is paused for a pause period 31 within a second expiration period of the subject and a respiratory gas measurement is performed within the pause period, thereby to obtain a second measurement value 33. A correction factor 45 is then determined based on the first measurement value 32 and the second measurement value 33 and the correction factor is employed to correct subsequent respiratory gas measurement values obtained from the subject at the predetermined respiration rate, thereby to improve the accuracy of the measurement.

Abstract: A humanoid torso mechanism is provided that simulates the actual movement of the human body. The torso includes a unique combination of mechanism and controlled rotary axes with actuators (4-8) arranged in a geometry that enables human-like movements. The construction provides mounting surfaces for other humanoid parts such as legs (3), arms (2) or head (1). The structure of the present invention comprises five degrees of freedom. All degrees of freedom are achieved with rotary axes and are concentrated in the lower part of torso except the last one on the top. The lower torso portion of the assembly includes a torso basic rotation around the vertical axis, which is attached to a base such that the output shaft extends vertically upwards. The next axis is attached to the first axis arrangement structure for the torso tilting function. The next two axes are arranged for tilting the torso forward-and-back in the hip and for the buckling of the mechanical spine structure. That combination of buckling and bending mechanical structures is carried out in a unique way that allows the simulation of buckling and bending the spine in a way very similar to the human body. This is very realistic and effectively enforced movement that is very similar to human body movement. The last axis mounted on the top of the torso rotates the shoulder girdle around the vertical axes. Movement of each axis is driven by actuators which are attached in each joint of the torso structure and independently controlled by a computer.
