Systems And Methods For Triggering And Cycling A Ventilator Based On Reconstructed Patient Effort Signal

View page
US Patent:
20090301486, Dec 10, 2009
Filed:
Jun 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/479239
Inventors:
Milenko Masic - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Nellcor Puritan Bennett LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
A61M 16/00
US Classification:
12820421
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods and devices for respiratory support. As one example, a method for respiratory support is described that includes providing a measured pressure, and calculating a net flow based on at least one measured inlet flow and measured outlet flow. A relationship between a first value related to the measured pressure, a second value related to the measured net flow and a third value related to patient effort is used to provide a prediction of patient effort. An interim value is updated based at least in part on the prediction of the patient effort, and used to help compute a patient effort. A ventilation cycle is initiated using the computed patient effort.

US Patent:
20090301487, Dec 10, 2009
Filed:
Jun 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/479249
Inventors:
Milenko Masic - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Nellcor Puritan Bennett LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
A61M 16/00
US Classification:
12820421
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods and devices for respiratory support. As one example, a ventilation system is disclosed that includes a graphical display, a processor and a computer readable medium. The computer readable medium is communicably coupled to the processor and includes instructions executable by the processor to receive a measured pressure value, and receive a net flow value. The instructions are further executable to calculate a patient effort value based on a relationship between patient effort, the measured pressure value and the net flow value; and to plot the patient effort value to the graphical display.

Systems And Methods For Determining Patient Effort And/Or Respiratory Parameters In A Ventilation System

View page
US Patent:
20090301490, Dec 10, 2009
Filed:
Jun 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/479230
Inventors:
Milenko Masic - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Nellcor Puritan Bennett LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
A61M 16/00
US Classification:
12820423
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods and devices for respiratory support. As one example, a method for respiratory support is described that includes measuring a pressure, providing a measured pressure, measuring an inlet flow and an outlet flow, and providing a measured net flow. A relationship between a first value related to the measured pressure, a second value related to the measured net flow and a third value related to patient effort is used to provide a prediction of patient effort. An interim value is updated based at least in part on the prediction of the patient effort.

Systems And Methods For Ventilation In Proportion To Patient Effort

US Patent:
20090301491, Dec 10, 2009
Filed:
Jun 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/479259
Inventors:
Milenko Masic - San Diego CA, US
Jon Guy - Carlsbad CA, US
Assignee:
Nellcor Puritan Bennett LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
A61M 16/00
G06N 5/02
G05D 7/06
US Classification:
12820423, 706 52, 700282
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods and devices for respiratory support. As one example, a ventilation system is disclosed that includes a computer readable medium including instructions executable by a processor to receive a measured pressure value and a net flow value. A patient effort value is calculated based on a relationship between patient effort, the measured pressure value and the net flow value. The instructions are further executable to calculate a gas delivery metric that varies as a function of the patient effort value. Gas is then caused to be delivered consistent with the gas delivery metric.

Systems And Methods For Controlling An Amount Of Oxygen In Blood Of A Ventilator Patient

US Patent:
20120090611, Apr 19, 2012
Filed:
Oct 13, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/903309
Inventors:
Dan Graboi - Encinitas CA, US
Peter Doyle - Vista CA, US
Milenko Masic - San Diego CA, US
Joseph Douglas Vandine - Manteca CA, US
Assignee:
Nellcor Puritan Bennett LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
A61M 16/00
US Classification:
12820423
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems and methods for controlling blood oxygen saturation (SpO) or partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO) of a patient being ventilated by a medical ventilator. The disclosure describes a novel approach of utilizing dynamic, real-time ventilator information in a closed-loop controller to determine the necessary FiOand flow commands for the medical ventilator.

US Patent:
20120247471, Oct 4, 2012
Filed:
Mar 30, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/076184
Inventors:
Milenko Masic - San Diego CA, US
Peter Doyle - Vista CA, US
Assignee:
Nellcor Puritan Bennett LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
A61M 16/00
US Classification:
12820423
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods and devices for respiratory support. As one example, a ventilation system is disclosed that includes a computer readable medium including instructions for operating in a hybrid mode. These instructions include measuring patient effort during a spontaneous breath type and deriving a neural inspiratory time from the measurements of patient effort. This neural inspiratory time is then set as the inspiratory for a breath of a mandatory breath type. If new patient effort measurements are received by the ventilator, the neural inspiratory time may be adjusted.
