METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MANUAL VENTILATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18147235 titled 'METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MANUAL VENTILATION
The abstract describes a method for operating a ventilation system in a manual ventilation mode, utilizing both electronically-controlled and pneumatically-controlled valves to deliver a target positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) during expiration.
- The method involves activating an electronically-controlled valve and a pneumatically-controlled valve to provide a pilot pressure to the pneumatically controlled valve for delivering the target PEEP.
- It includes adjusting the pilot pressure based on the comparison of a patient's airways pressure to the target PEEP for each breath.
- The system aims to optimize ventilation support for patients by precisely controlling the PEEP levels during manual ventilation.
- By combining electronic and pneumatic control mechanisms, the system ensures accurate and efficient delivery of the target PEEP.
- This innovation enhances the effectiveness and safety of manual ventilation procedures in medical settings.
Potential Applications: - Intensive care units - Operating rooms - Emergency medical services
Problems Solved: - Ensuring precise delivery of PEEP during manual ventilation - Optimizing ventilation support for patients - Enhancing safety and efficiency in medical ventilation procedures
Benefits: - Improved patient outcomes - Enhanced control over ventilation parameters - Increased safety and accuracy in manual ventilation
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Ventilation System for Medical Settings" This technology can be utilized in medical equipment manufacturing for developing advanced ventilation systems for hospitals, clinics, and emergency medical services. The market implications include improved patient care, increased demand for innovative ventilation solutions, and potential partnerships with healthcare providers.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this ventilation system improve patient outcomes compared to traditional methods? 2. What are the key advantages of using electronically-controlled and pneumatically-controlled valves in manual ventilation systems?
Original Abstract Submitted
Various methods and systems are provided for a ventilation system. In one example, a method for operating a ventilation system in a manual ventilation mode includes activating an electronically-controlled valve and a pneumatically-controlled valve to provide a pilot pressure to the pneumatically controlled valve to deliver a target positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) from a gas control unit during expiration. The method further includes adjusting the pilot pressure based on a comparison of a patient airways pressure to the target PEEP for each breath of a patient.
