摘要:
A cannula receives respiratory airflows and ambient airflows; a differential pressure transducer determine pressure differentials between the respiratory airflows and the ambient airflows; and a ventilator responds to the pressure differentials. Another receives respiratory airflows and interface airflows; a differential pressure transducer determine pressure differentials between the respiratory airflows and the interface airflows; and a ventilator responds to the pressure differentials. And another receives respiratory airflows from a subject and interface airflows from an area near a cannula; a differential pressure transducer determine pressure differentials between the respiratory airflows and the interface airflows; and a ventilator responds to the pressure differentials. Corresponding respiratory monitoring methods receive, determine, and control the same.
