            Abstract : 
The paper presents a new method applied to quantitative evaluation of the diagnostic parameters of human respiratory system. This method is based on measurement and analysis of the breathing flow during artificially caused transient states. These transient states are caused by short-time negative pulses, which are generated at the outlet patient air ducts. The results of the experiments for the healthy patient and patient with the dysfunction of respiratory system are the topic this paper
