Method and system for managing mechanical respiratory ventilation

摘要

A system and computer implemented method for operating a respiratory ventilator ventilating a subject. One or more body signals obtained from the subject indicative of the subject's ventilation are analyzed so as to perform a spirometric assessment of the ventilation. It is then determined whether the spirometric assessment satisfactorily conforms to one or more predetermined spirometric standards. If the spirometric assessment does not satisfactorily conform to the spirometric standard, the operating parameters of the ventilator are adjusted. The invention also provides a system for carrying out the method.
