摘要: A portable ventilator uses a Roots-type blower as a compressor to reduce both the size and power consumption of the ventilator. Various functional aspects of the ventilator are delegated to multiple subassemblies having dedicated controllers and software that interact with a ventilator processor to provide user interface functions, exhalation control and flow control servos, and monitoring of patient status. The ventilator overcomes noise problems through the use of a noise attenuating system comprising noise reducing pressure compensating orifices on the Roots blower housing and multiple noise reducing chambers. The ventilator is configured with a highly portable form factor, and may be used as a stand-alone device or as a docked device having a docking cradle with enhanced interface and monitoring capabilities.

摘要: A portable mechanical ventilator having a ROOTS® blower is configured to provide a desired gas flow and pressure to a patient circuit. The mechanical ventilator includes a flow meter operative to measure gas flow produced by the ROOTS® blower and an exhalation control module configured to operate an exhalation valve connected to the patient circuit. A bias valve connected between the ROOTS® blower and the patient circuit is specifically configured to generate a bias pressure relative to the patient circuit pressure at the exhalation control module. The bias valve is further configured to attenuate pulsating gas flow produced by the ROOTS® blower such that gas flowing to the mass flow meter exhibits a substantially constant pressure characteristic. The bias pressure facilitates closing of the exhalation valve at the start of inspiration, regulates positive end expiratory pressure during exhalation, and purges sense lines via a pressure transducer module.

摘要: A portable mechanical ventilator uses a constant-speed compressor compressor and a recirculating bypass circuit. Bypass flow is governed by a spring-biased bypass valve so connected to both the inlet and the outlet of the main flow control valve as to maintain a differential pressure across the flow valve sufficient to operate the ventilator with minimal energy consumption. The flow valve is operated by a microprocessor in accordance with empirically derived lookup tables to both produce the desired air flow and provide a measure of that air flow.

摘要: A ventilator device and system comprising a rotating compressor, preferably a drag compressor, which, at the beginning of each inspiratory ventilation phase, is accelerated to a sufficient speed to deliver the desired inspiratory gas flow, and is subsequently stopped or decelerated to a basal flow level to permit the expiratory ventilation phase to occur. The ventilator device is small and light weight enough to be utilized in portable applications. The ventilator device is power efficient enough to operate for extended periods of time on internal or external batteries. Also provided is an oxygen blending apparatus which utilizes solenoid valves having specific orifice sizes for blending desired amounts of oxygen into the inspiratory gas flow. Also provided is an exhalation valve having an exhalation flow transducer which incorporates a radio frequency data base to provide an attendant controller with specific calibration information for the exhalation flow transducer.

摘要: An apparatus for detecting fluid flow by obtaining a differential pressure across an obstruction in a fluid conveying channel. The obstruction is hingably connected to the housing of the channel. The connection is of a width substantially less than the periphery of the channel so as to reduce the collection of contaminants which decrease the accuracy of the apparatus. Because the orifice defined by the area between the obstruction and the periphery of the channel is variable according to the fluid flow, the pressure differential versus flowrate relationship is different from the square-law relationship of a fixed orifice, and provides a relatively high pressure differential at low flowrates and a relatively low pressure differential at high flowrates.

摘要: A volume ventilator is disclosed which has a balloon valve type exhalation valve for permitting release of gases to the ambient environment during the exhalation period of artificial ventilation or spontaneous breathing, or when there is excess proximal pressure in the ventilator system. A pressure transducer continuously senses the proximal pressure in the ventilator system and sends to a microcomputer controller and associated circuitry of the ventilator system a signal indicative of the instantaneous proximal pressure. The pressure in the balloon, which is the pilot pressure of the exhalation valve, is regulated through a jet venturi type pressure controller which is connected to a source of pressurized gas. The gas flows through the jet venturi, wherein its flow rate is regulated by a ball valve moving against a suitable valve seat. The ball valve is controlled by a stepper motor through a cam follower. The stepper motor is controlled through electronic signals generated in the computer control in response to the difference between the instantaneously sensed proximal pressure, and the pilot pressure required to be present in the balloon in accordance with an algorithm or preselected pilot pressure-versus-time function. Accurate servo control of the flow of respiratory gas to the patient is accomplished by a flow control subsystem which incorporates a flow control valve controlled by a second stepper motor. The flow of the respiratory gas is monitored, downstream of the flow control valve, by a flow transducer. The flow transducer sends to the microcomputer controller a signal indicative of the instantaneous flow rate of the respiratory gas. The microcomputer controller compares the instantaneous flow rate to a flow rate value required by an algorithm or preselected flow rate-versus-time function stored in its memory. The microcomputer controller then sends a signal to the second stepper motor to adjust the flow control valve to provide the flow rate instantaneously required by the preselected function or algorithm.
