  • Publication number: 20230248259
    Abstract: A breath analyzer for detecting breathing events of a person ventilated with a respiratory gas, comprising an electronic computing and storage unit configured to receive a signal corresponding to a ventilation pressure and/or a respiratory flow and/or a tidal volume of the respiratory gas delivered to the person and, during a predetermined analysis duration, to detect a curve of the signal by a curve analyzer. A ventilator for ventilating a person with a respiratory gas, which ventilator comprises the breath analyzer and a method for detecting breathing events of a person ventilated with a respiratory gas is also described.

  • Publication number: 20230201498
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a respiration device having a respiration unit for generating an airflow for the respiration and having a monitoring unit. The monitoring unit is used to detect a respiration parameter and to classify events in the respiration on the basis of monitoring of the respiration parameter. In this case, the monitoring unit is configured to carry out an event analysis to recognize an occurrence, which is characteristic for Cheyne-Stokes respiration, of chronologically successive events and for this purpose to ascertain the period length thereof and to compare them to one another and to register the presence of Cheyne-Stokes respiration when the compared period lengths each deviate by less than 40% from one another.

  • Patent number: 11432743
    Abstract: Disclosed is a device for respiration with at least one pressurized gas source for respiratory gas and a sensor unit for determination of respiratory gas pressure and/or flow rate and/or volume and a control unit. The control unit records an individual breathing pattern of a patient and from this forms an individual pressure profile for the patient which is provided by the pressurized gas source.

  • Publication number: 20210283353
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for operating a data processing unit of a ventilation device, and also to a ventilation device. Therapy data are registered and stored in a memory unit and at least a part of the therapy data is transmitted with a transmission unit to a network. At least one available radio network is determined with the transmission unit and at least one parameter for a network quality of the network is defined. At least one processing of the therapy data prior to their transmission into the radio network is carried out dynamically with the data processing unit depending on the parameter.

  • Publication number: 20210251512
    Abstract: An evaluation system for a ventilator provided for machine ventilation of a patient, comprising an evaluation device which is suitable and configured for recording, over time, a respiration parameter detected by a sensor. The evaluation device is suitable and configured for determining, from a time profile of the respiration parameter, a characteristic number for a respiration stability of the patient, such that the characteristic number provides an assessment of the quality of the ventilation during a period of time.

  • Publication number: 20200338289
    Abstract: A system and method for supplying respiratory gas comprises a ventilation device comprising a respiratory gas source and a control device configured for generating a defined respiratory gas flow for ventilation by the ventilation device and for monitoring a parameter characteristic of a pressure by a sensor device. The parameter characterizes that pressure at which the ventilation device admits the respiratory gas stream for maintaining the defined respiratory gas flow in order to counterbalance breathing activity of the patient. The control device is configured for registering a course of the parameter over time as a pressure profile.
