20080255467 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING BREATHING TUBE OCCLUSION - A method for identifying an occlusion in a breathing tube of a ventilator system is disclosed herein. The method includes obtaining data related to a respiratory signal, transferring the data to a processor, and implementing the processor to evaluate the data in a manner adapted to automatically identify the presence of an occlusion in the breathing tube. A corresponding ventilator system is also disclosed. | 10-16-2008 |
20090266360 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MOBILIZING OCCLUSIONS FROM A BREATHING TUBE - A method for mobilizing an occlusion from a breathing tube is presented. The method includes automatically mobilizing the occlusion from the breathing tube by regulating an inspiratory flow, an expiratory flow, or a combination thereof, where the breathing tube is configured to operationally couple a patient to a ventilation system, and where the ventilation system is configured to provide artificial respiration to the patient. | 10-29-2009 |
20130032147 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR VISUALIZING MECHANICAL VENTILATION INFORMATION - A medical system having a ventilator is provided. The medical system includes a memory storing data related to patient and ventilator parameters. A processor is programmed to organize, in time, the data related to the patient and ventilator parameters. A viewer displays the patient and ventilator parameters for an overall monitoring time period on a timeline. A reference marker is displayed on the timeline to select a segment of the patient and ventilator parameters corresponding to a past monitoring time, wherein the segment selected represents a time segment within the overall monitoring time period. The patient and ventilator parameters corresponding to the time segment are displayed. | 02-07-2013 |
20130032149 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR VISUALIZING MECHANICAL VENTILATION INFORMATION - A medical system having a ventilator is provided. The medical system includes a memory for storing one or more patient and ventilation parameters. A processor is programmed to organize the one or more patient parameters into at least one of past patient and ventilation parameters, present patient and ventilation parameters, or future patient and ventilation parameters. A viewer displays at least one of the past patient or ventilation parameters, the present patient or ventilation parameters, or the future patient or ventilation parameters. The past patient and ventilation parameters, the present patient and ventilation parameters, and the future patient and ventilation parameters are selectable on the viewer. | 02-07-2013 |
