A
display device for panting-related information comprising: a
breath sound detecting unit (111, 112, 115) configured to detect a
breath sound of a measurement subject and obtain a
breath sound signal in a
time series expressing the breath sound; a determination
processing unit configured to convert the respiratory sound
signal into a
frequency domain based on the respiratory sound
signal to obtain a
frequency spectrum of the respiratory sound, and to determine, for each predetermined
processing unit time period, whether or not wheezing is included in the respiratory sound based on the area of a dominant peak having the largest area in a graph of frequency with respect to
sound pressure among a plurality of peaks in the
frequency spectrum; and a
display processing unit configured to display, based on a result of the determination performed by the determination
processing unit, as information indicating a
temporal change in the frequency of wheezing, a frequency of the processing unit time periods in which wheezing was determined by the determination processing unit to be included, in each addition unit time period (T1, T2, T3, T4) including a plurality of processing unit time periods, on a display screen (10); and further an addition processing unit configured to add the lengths of processing unit periods in which it was determined that the wheezing was included in the addition unit periods (T1, T2, T3, T4) and to obtain the result as a wheezing period (Tw1, Tw2, Tw3, Tw4), wherein the
display processing unit displays the information indicating the
temporal change in the frequency of wheezing as a bar chart (AT) indicating percentages occupied by the wheezing time periods (Tw1, Tw2, Tw3, Tw4) in bars of a certain length corresponding to the addition unit time periods (T1, T2, T3, T4), wherein the
display processing unit displays a plurality of bars (AT1, AT2, AT3, AT4) corresponding to the addition unit time periods (T1, T2, T3, T4) in parallel alignment on the display screen (10), wherein the addition processing unit classifies, in each of the processing unit time periods, the intensity of the wheezing sound into a plurality of stages based on the area of the dominant peak and adds the lengths of the processing unit time periods in which the wheezing was determined to be included in each of the classified stages, and wherein the display processing unit displays, based on the addition performed by the addition processing unit, the panting time periods (Tw1, Tw2, Tw3, Tw4) divided into the stages in the bars (AT1, AT2, AT3, AT4) corresponding to the addition unit time periods (T1, T2, T3, T4).
