    摘要: A CPAP treatment apparatus, as one form of positive pressure ventilatory assistance, includes a turbine/blower, operated by a mechanically coupled electrical motor that receives air or breathable gas at an inlet thereof, and supplies the breathable gas at a delivery pressure to a delivery tube/hose having a connection at the other end thereof with a nose mask. A microcontroller has an operational “Mask-Fit” mode. An initial constant pressure level is applied by the blower to the mask. If the functional mode is a manual mode, then the mask-fit test pressure is the current ‘set’ pressure. If the functional mode is the automatic titration mode, the mask-fit test pressure is the 95th percentile pressure of the previous session, otherwise it is the base treatment pressure, e.g. 10-12 cm H2O. This constant pressure is applied for a period of time, typically 1-3 minutes. The microcontroller continuously determines mask leak as the value, fLEAK, from a flow sensor, comparing this to a threshold, and providing the patent with a visual indication of degree of leak. In this way the patient can manipulate the mask to ensure correct fitting as indicated by the appropriate message or indication.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for detection and treatment of respiratory disorders using implanted devices are described. In one form, afferent nerves are electrically or electro-mechanically stimulated to increase the tone of upper airway muscles. Detection of respiratory disorders is carried out using electrodes implanted in sub-pectoral regions. Open and closed airway apneas are distinguished using a combination of acoustic detectors and electrical transducers.
