Bioelectric Control Ventilation Mode

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a respiratory apparatus (1) configured to provide bioelectrically controlled ventilation to a patient by ventilating the patient (3) in a ventilation mode where an indication is detected to be performed by the patient Patient-triggered breaths are delivered to the patient upon a bioelectrically triggered event of spontaneous breathing effort. The respiratory device is configured to monitor a patient's ventilation level and is configured to deliver a non-patient-triggered breath to the patient when the ventilation level falls below a minimum ventilation threshold.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to respiratory apparatus, methods and computer programs for providing bioelectrically controlled ventilation to a patient. Background technique [0002] In the field of mechanical ventilation, there are various techniques for adapting the ventilation pattern provided by the ventilator to the patient's own breathing effort. Ventilation modes in which the ventilator adapts the supply of breathing gas to the detectable breathing effort of the patient being ventilated are generally referred to as assisted or supported ventilation modes. A ventilator operating in such a ventilation mode is said to provide supported ventilation to the patient. [0003] In recent years, techniques have been developed for neuromodulation of ventilation by controlling the supply of breathing gas by the ventilator based on bioelectrical signals indicative of at least the point in time at which the patient desires to inhale and / or exhale so that th...
