    摘要: A tube assembly includes a first tube piece and a second tube piece. The first tube piece includes an inlet end connecting a gas source and an outlet end connecting the second tube piece. The first tube piece includes a discharging hole that is configured so that, in a connecting state, the discharging hole is closed to make the gas to enter the second tube piece, in the separating state, the discharging hole is opened to make the gas to be discharged outside from the discharging hole. The tube assembly includes a valve member that is configured so that, in the connecting state, the valve member opens the outlet end of the first tube piece to make the gas to enter the second tube piece, and in the separating state, the valve member closes the outlet end to make the gas to be discharged outside from the discharging hole.

    摘要: Systems and methods for model-driven system integration on a ventilator comprise a modeled exhalation flow. Ventilator flow sensors contain components that are easily damaged or impacted and have high rates of failure. Knowledge failure frequency and type may help determine when to replace, clean, or calibrate a flow sensor. A modeled exhalation flow may be trained for a ventilator. Additionally, the modeled exhalation flow may be compared to a flow sensor flow to determine a specific failure. Additionally or alternatively, the modeled exhalation flow may supplement, weight, or replace a faulty flow sensor measurement. These systems and methods may assist in identifying an inaccurate flow sensor measurement and/or providing a more accurate modeled flow estimate, thus increasing accuracy in patient-ventilator interactions.
