8.3.2 Cardiomotility superimpose
The effect of cardiomotility on the respiratory wave is called cardiomotility superimposing.
When the respiration electrodes collect impedance changes caused by rhythmic blood flow,
this will happen. Placing the respiration electrodes correctly will reduce this effect. The liver
and ventricle should avoid the connection of respiration electrode, so that the heart or
pulsating flow won’t generate artifact.
