摘要:
A carbon-dioxide sampling system for accurately monitoring carbon dioxide in exhaled breath. The system includes a ventilator. The ventilator is configured to ventilate a patient with respiratory gases. The ventilator includes a carbon-dioxide sampling control unit and a carbon-dioxide analyzer. The carbon-dioxide sampling control unit is configured to control the timing of sampling of carbon dioxide in the exhaled breath of a patient, and to control the timing of the analysis of exhaled gases by the carbon-dioxide analyzer.

A mask for patient ventilation comprises a frame portion, a retention portion, and a connector portion. The frame portion is for surrounding a respiratory opening of a patient. The retention portion is for maintaining positive pressure between the frame portion and the patient. The connector portion is for connecting delivery tubes to the mask. The connector portion is configured such that the connector only couples with compatible components.
摘要:
A carbon-dioxide sampling device for non-invasively measuring carbon dioxide in exhaled breath. The device includes a breath-sampling chamber and a carbon-dioxide collector. The breath-sampling chamber is configured to be disposed over a respiratory opening of a patient, and is also configured to seal with the patient's face preventing unintentional leakage of respiratory gases from the chamber. The carbon-dioxide collector is disposed in the breath-sampling chamber in fluid dynamic isolation from the respiratory gases. Moreover, the carbon-dioxide collector is configured to be disposed in proximity to, and outside of, the respiratory opening of the patient, and to collect a sample of exhaled breath from the patient.

摘要:
A method and system for modifying ventilator operation based on determining the orientation of a patient associated with the ventilator is disclosed. A patient orientation monitoring device, which may be attached to the patient, generates patient orientation data to facilitate in modifying the ventilator operation. Modifying the ventilator operation includes instructing the ventilator to increase the amount of fresh gas to the patient.

A ventilation mask comprises a corrugated flexible seal, and a plurality of ridges disposed along the corrugated flexible seal. The corrugated flexible seal is configured for establishing a fluid seal between the ventilation mask and a patient, and for allowing facial movements of the patient while maintaining the fluid seal. The plurality of ridges disposed along the corrugated flexible seal is configured for physical contact with the patient.
摘要:
A method for ventilator suction management. The method includes accessing data associated with a patient, wherein the patient is associated with a ventilator; analyzing the data; and determining that suction is needed on the patient based on the analyzed data.
摘要:
A method for bi-directional ventilator communication includes receiving a communication, at the ventilator, from a medical entity, wherein the communication is associated with ventilator manipulation. The method also includes transmitting ventilator information, by the ventilator, to the medical entity wherein the ventilator information is associated with the ventilator manipulation.
摘要:
A method for remotely accessing a ventilator. The method includes receiving a request to remotely access ventilator data, at the ventilator, from a remote device; transmitting the ventilator data to the remote device from the ventilator; and receiving remote caregiver data, at the ventilator, from the remote device, wherein the remote caregiver data is based on the ventilator data.
