Abstract

Methods and related equipment for measuring components of exhaled breath of a subject are provided which involve causing the subject to exhale into an appropriate apparatus for receiving exhaled breath;
increasing the pressure in the mouth of the subject to a level sufficient to close the vellum and isolate the nasopharynx during exhalation;
a means of monitoring nasal CO2 to confine vellum closure;
and measuring the level of one or more components of the collected exhaled breath. Endogenous nitric oxide is a preferred component of exhaled breath for monitoring and analysis.
