Resistance is the opposition that a substance offers to the flow of electric current, measured in ohms. It is a fundamental concept in physics and engineering, affecting how electrical circuits function and influencing the design of electronic components.
Adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) is a non-invasive ventilation therapy used to treat central sleep apnea and complex sleep apnea syndromes by continuously adjusting airway pressure based on detected breathing patterns. It enhances patient comfort and compliance by providing personalized ventilation support that adapts to the patient's needs in real-time.
