20130291869 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING BREATHING - The present invention relates to a method and a system for controlling breathing of a patient. A system for controlling breathing of a patient includes a respiratory conduit. The respiratory conduit is configured to be coupled to a patient interface device and is further configured to be coupled to a pressurized air generating device. The respiratory conduit includes at least two air flow control devices, positioned between the patient interface device and the pressurized air generating device that cooperate to closely control the CO | 11-07-2013 |
20140039283 | SYSTEM FOR ANALYZING OXIMETRY DATA - A method and system for the analysis of a patient's oximetry data to detect sleep-disordered breathing is provided. The system employs an algorithm to reliably detect patient arousals and correlate those with accelerated heart rate and oxygen saturation levels in a manner that detects sleep-disordered breathing via the respiratory mask. Initially a timing channel is formed based on a plethsmography signal using an optical finger sensor. Based on the pleth waveform, a respiratory wave form is prepared that represents respiration rate. An arousal mask is applied to the signal based on attenuations in the pleth signal. Once arousals are identified the time required for changes to propagate from the lungs to the blood gas is subtracted from the onset time of the arousal. As a result if the timing agrees with dropping oxygen saturation or falling arterial pH then the arousal is indicated as a chemoreflex related arousal. | 02-06-2014 |
20140150799 | SINGLE USE BREATHING MASK WITH ADHESIVE GASKET - A single use mask having an adhesive gasket is provided. The mask is of a two piece construction including a relatively hard attachment shell and a flexible gasket. The shell serves at the air chamber covering the mouth and nose of the patient as well as the point of attachment for the therapy tubing set. The flexible gasket and adhesive layer serves as the attachment means for affixing the mask to the patient's face. In contrast to the masks of the prior art, the gasket is formed from a sheet of foam material. | 06-05-2014 |
