MEASUREMENT ISSUES ON CYSTIC FIBROSIS DIAGNOSTIC

P. Morello, A. Lay-Ekuakille , G. Griffo, C. De Capua
Abstract:
Physiological measurements are necessary for determining parameters of interest. If they deal with indirect measurements, they are not invasive and much more attractive than others. Sweat is a physiological material that can be characterized because its content is useful. It encompasses direct and indirect parameters for measuring health status. One of the parameters is sodium chloride that is an indicator of cystic fibrosis. The main scope of the paper is to illustrate results and findings of designing an acquisition board for conditioning and processing physiological signal containing information about sodium chloride.
