UBICU: A Gamified Respiratory Incentive System for Pulmonary Re-Expansion by Jaime Aguilar-Zambrano, Esther C. Wilches-Luna, Helberg Asencio-Santofimio, Manuel Valencia, Diana Riveros, Andres Navarro, Juan Carlos Martinez, Eugenio Tamura, Jose Angel Loaiza, Julian Hernandez, Diana Sanchez, Juan David Garcia, Leonardo Arzayus-Patino, Valeria Perez-Hortua, Elizabeth Moncada, Melissa Ramirez

“…We assessed pulmonary ventilation distribution before, during, and after using two flow respiratory incentive spirometers, UBICU and TriFlo, with electrical impedance tomography. Our findings indicate that UBICU provides accurate and reliable measurements of pulmonary ventilation distribution, showing statistically significant improvements after use (p < 0.01), validating its effectiveness as a respiratory incentive spirometer. …”
