<p>A respiration type evaluation apparatus (1) includes a bioelectrical impedance determiner (170,200) for determining a bioelectrical impedance at at least a body region of a human subject that contributes to respiration of the human subject, and a respiration type determiner (170) for determining whether respiration of the human subject is abdominal or costal on the basis of change over time of the bioelectrical impedance determined by the bioelectrical impedance determiner.</p> |
