Respiratory Care Subject Matter Experts

In modern respiratory devices, including anesthesia systems, CPAP machines, invasive and non-invasive ventilators and oxygen concentrators, an important feature is the early detection of the patient's inhalation phase via a flow trigger.  This allows the device to assist a spontaneous breath with a preset overpressure, while keeping the patient's respiratory effort to a minimum. The spontaneous breathing effort and entire respiratory activity of the patient is typically monitored by a highly sensitive system of sensors, including pressure, temperature, position, vibration, and CO2 detection sensors to monitor and manage the ventilation system for a smooth, filtered, and efficient transition of air.
