  • Publication number: 20240045817
    Abstract: A method for managing data exchange via at least three interfaces of a ventilator, at least one interface being configured for a data exchange with at least one counterpart station that is spatially separate from the ventilator. The data exchange comprises a data input and a data output, and a data output and/or data input is possible during an ongoing operation of the ventilator via at least one of the at least three interfaces only if it is determined that sufficient system resources and a reliable power supply are available.

  • Patent number: 10709856
    Abstract: The invention relates to an operating- and information system for a breathing apparatus, comprising a display for displaying information and for displaying operating fields for the user, and comprising at least one touch-sensitive input field arranged in close proximity to the displayed operating field. According to the invention, a first operating field and a second operating field are displayed in the region of the display, and a processing unit, which is coupled to the display and to the touch-sensitive input unit, is designed to register an operation of the first operating field via the touch-sensitive input unit, and, in accordance therewith, to cause the control unit to execute the function associated with the operating field.

  • Publication number: 20190160242
    Abstract: Disclosed is a respiratory gas supply system comprising a respiratory gas source, a control unit, a pressure control module, a flow control module, a pressure sensor device, a flow sensor device and a user interface for the specification of respiratory gas supply parameters or for the exchange of data. The control unit alternately activates the pressure control module and the flow control module, with the pressure control module controlling the respiratory gas source to specify a respiratory gas pressure in the range of 0-90 mbar and the flow control module controlling the respiratory gas source to specify a respiratory gas flow in the range of 0-90 l/min.
