The paper presents a description of functioning of a platform supporting the detection of obstructive diseases in the respiratory system education process. A 16-parameter model of the respiratory system simulated in the MATLAB/Simulink environment was set in the role of the tested patient. It has been linked to the control layer, developed in the LabVIEW environment, using the SIT library (Simulation Interface Toolkit). This layer is responsible for the modification of the model’s parameters and the generation of the results of the respiratory impedance measurements using forced oscillation method. The application is a solution that provides a lot of flexibility in the education of students studying courses related to biomedical engineering and health sciences, and can easily be implemented to work as a problem-oriented e-learning solution.
