Patent EP-1204439-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SINDERBY CHRISTER
IPC: A61N1/05
Filed: 2000-07-27
Abstract: A gain controller and method for controlling the value of a gain is used in conjunction with an electrode array for detecting a signal representative of respiratory drive output of a patient during inspiration, and a lung ventilator for assisting inspiration of the patient. The gain controller comprises an input for receiving the signal representative of respiratory drive output; a comparator for determining whether the signal representative of respiratory drive output is higher or lower than a target drive signal; and a gain adjustment unit for increasing the value of a gain when the amplitude of the signal representative of respiratory drive output is higher than the amplitude of the target drive signal and for decreasing the value of this gain when the amplitude of the signal representative of respiratory drive output is lower than the amplitude of the target drive signal. The gain is applied to the signal representative of respiratory drive output to produce an amplified respiratory drive output representative signal used for controlling the lung ventilator. The advantage of target drive ventilation is that this mode of ventilation does not depend on pressure, flow or volume measurements. A leaky ventilatory line will introduce a change in respiratory drive which will change the ventilatory assist in order to return the respiratory drive to its target level. Also, changes in the patient's metabolic or patho-physiological status which result in altered respiratory drive will be compensated.

Abstract: A mobile ergospirometry system including a portable measurement unit that can be attached to a subject and that incorporates a mouthpiece or mask to collect respiratory gas, a sensor for the volume or amount of gas as well as sensors to determine the CO<SUB>2</SUB>/O<SUB>2 </SUB>concentration in the respiratory gas, a signal processing unit, and a telemetry module. The system further includes a computer-assisted base station having a telemetry unit to create a wireless connection to the telemetry module. In the system a bidirectional transmission route to the telemetry unit is set up by the telemetry module to transmit data and commands, for which purpose a transmitter and receiver subassembly is provided in each case, so that from the base station it is possible to communicate to the subject online information or requirements for operation of the measurement unit and/or the progress of the test. The signal processing unit sends coded commands that it receives to a speech module for the conversion and audio output of instructions as to behavior, explanations, or similar information.
