Modification of an adult ventilator to an infant ventilator.
BENDIXEN ET AL, 1 AND SAFA.R ET AL. ~ have stated criteria which an acceptable ventilator should meet and these include: I. mechanical dependability 2. basic controls clearly delineated and properly marked 3. FiO~ available over a range of ~-0 per cent to 100 per cent 4. adequate humidification with a controllable degree of humidity 5. sensitive patient-triggering device with a reliable automat...
متن کاملSome Infant Ventilator Systems
The pressure:flow relationships which occur when four infant ventilator systems are attached to model lungs have been investigated. The results show that all four systems were capable of ventilating model lungs with satisfactory values for minute volume but two of the systems had features due to poor expiratory pathway design that were considered unsatisfactory. The expiratory pathway of a T-pi...
متن کاملAssessment of a new valveless infant ventilator.
A new valveless ventilator, which uses an air jet to provide the driving force for positive pressure ventilation, was used on 13 newborn babies (10 of very low birthweight) who had severe respiratory disease. The ventilator differs from 'true' jet ventilators in that its driving gas does not take part in gas exchange. Functionally it is a pressure pre-set, time-cycled ventilator, whose performa...
متن کاملPerfromance of an Improved Solar Car Ventilator
The ventilator inhales fresh air from outside into the inside cabin of a vehicle and exhales hot air to the outside. On a sunny day, solar energy can be used to run the ventilator, and to charge the battery simultaneously. During a cloudy day, the ventilator can be driven by the battery. In this paper, heat transfer and energy balance inside the car were investigated. Moreover power consumption...
متن کاملUsing ventilator graphics to identify patient-ventilator asynchrony.
Patient-ventilator interaction can be described as the relationship between 2 respiratory pumps: (1) the patient's pulmonary system, which is controlled by the neuromuscular system and influenced by the mechanical characteristics of the lungs and thorax, and (2) the ventilator, which is controlled by the ventilator settings and the function of the flow valve. When the 2 pumps function in synchr...
