A gas sensor kit includes a gas sensor that measures a gas concentration of an exhalation gas of a subject and a gas supply unit that supplies a therapeutic gas, supplied through a tube, to the subject. In the gas sensor, the gas sensor has a convex portion that is supported when connected with the gas supply unit, and the gas supply unit has at least one locking claw that supports the convex portion when connected with the gas sensor.

A respiratory assistance system can provide high flow therapy to patients. The respiratory assistance system can include a patient interface that can deliver a gas flow to a patient and a gas source that can drive the gas flow towards the patient interface at an operating flow rate. The system can include a controller for controlling the operating flow rate of the gas. The controller can apply multiple test flow rate values in a range as the operating flow rate. For each of the test flow rate values, the controller can measure a patient parameter. The controller can determine a new flow rate value based on the measured patient parameters. Patient parameters can include respiration rate, work of breathing, or any other parameters related to the respiratory circuit.

The invention relates to medicine, The technical result of the present invention is to increase the efficiency of treatment of the respiratory system pathologies. The system includes a communication unit connected to a ventilator, a human-machine interface unit, a data processing, storage and management unit, an algorithmic unit, a pulse generation unit, a unit of electromyography electrodes and a stimulation.

A method includes receiving data associated with a sleep session of a user. The method also includes determining that the user is experiencing or has experienced an event based at least in part on the data. The method also includes causing pressurized air to be directed from a respiratory device to a multi-compartment bladder in response to determining that the user is experiencing or has experienced the event to aid in modifying a position of a head of the user.

A method includes applying, via a respiratory therapy system, initial therapy settings for a user during a first sleep session in which the user uses the respiratory therapy system. First physiological data, which is received from one or more sensors, is generated during the first sleep session. Modified therapy settings are applied, via the respiratory therapy system, during a second sleep session of the user. Second physiological data is received from the one or more sensors. The second physiological data is generated by the one or more sensors during the second sleep session. A set of sleep-related parameters is determined based on changes between the first physiological data and the second physiological data. One or more of a recommended therapy or recommended therapy settings is determined based on the set of sleep-related parameters.

A method of fit testing includes providing a respirator; providing a sensor having a sensing element removably positioned substantially within an interior gas space of the respirator; providing a reader configured to be in wireless communication with the sensor; positioning the respirator over a mouth and a nose of a user while the sensor is positioned substantially within an interior gas space of the respirator; and observing respirator fit assessment data communicated from the sensor to the reader.

A method of controlling a ventilation system includes displaying, on a display screen of a ventilation system, a first bar including a plurality of parameter segments. Each parameter segment indicates a level of a ventilation setting. The method further includes displaying, on the display screen, a second bar including a plurality of time segments. Each time segment indicates a time duration of a corresponding parameter segment of the first bar. As time passes, the display of the second bar is altered based on an amount of time passing. Upon a time duration of a time segment expiring, the ventilation setting is altered by the ventilation system to a level corresponding to a subsequent parameter segment. The display of the first bar is altered to highlight the subsequent parameter setting.

Monitors for evaluating airway procedures, particularly in a pre-hospital environment, are described herein. In an example method, an airway parameter of an individual receiving assisted ventilation is detected by an airway sensor. A monitor determines a metric based on the airway sensor. Further, the monitor performs an action based on the metric.

A stand-alone chamber or multi-chamber inhalation system has at least two alternative vaporized test liquid supply systems for passive or self-administered delivery of vaporized test fluid and air to one or more test chambers, which can be passive or restraint chambers, based on operator selection of delivery on and off times in a passive mode or actuation of an actuator in the chamber by a test animal in a self-administered mode. In one case, a multiple inhalation chamber system has two or more separate test fluid delivery systems and provides options for selective passive uniform drug delivery to multiple chambers or selective delivery of two or more different drugs to different groups of chambers from different delivery systems so that two different drugs or different concentrations of delivered drugs can be tested simultaneously.

A ventilation monitoring system includes one or more processors configured to receive data from a sensor positioned along a breathing circuit during a mechanical ventilation procedure for a patient. The one or more processors are also configured to analyze the data to determine respective concentrations of ions at the sensor and to calculate a detected ratio of the respective concentrations of the ions at the sensor. The one or more processors are also configured to compare the detected ratio to an expected ratio to determine a condition of the patient and to output a notification to indicate the condition of the patient.
