متن کاملA Control System for Oxygen Therapy of Premature Infants
A control system is proposed for oxygen therapy of premature infants. The control software consists of a stepwise as well as a PID control algorithm to provide fast and efficient response to changes in arterial oxygen saturation of the infant detected by pulse oximetry. The control system is tested by using a simulation model of the infant’s respiratory system. The simulation results at differe...

The incidence of ...
