[Analysis and realization of new methods of testing the artificial ventilation of lungs (AVL) equipment]
Abstract:
The requirements applicable to the canal of the artificial ventilation of the lungs (AVL), volume measuring and to methods of appropriate monitoring based on GOST R ISO 10651.1-99 "Medical equipment of artificial ventilation of the lungs. Part 1. Technical requirements" (now valid). The recommendations on the testing methods and means and, in particular, on modeling the stretching properties and resistance of pulmonary phantoms are motivated. The influence of the internal stretching properties of AVL equipment and of the inertia system's specificity, comprising an apparatus and patient's respiratory organs, produced on the apparatus characteristics and functional curves (gas flow velocity, respiratory volume as well as pressure in the lungs and at the apparatus outlet) is analyzed.

Assessment of Ventilation I: Respiratory Rate
A Ventilation assessment is critical for monitoring a patient's health status. Respiration, one of the most accessible vital signs, provides insights into the function of numerous body systems and can indicate serious health issues, such as brainstem injuries from head trauma.
Critical Guidelines for Assessing Ventilation:
Assessment of Diffusion and Perfusion
The Role of Diffusion in Respiration
Diffusion is the process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In the respiratory system, this principle...

Ventilatory Modes
There are three ventilatory modes: full support, partial support, and spontaneous. These are described below.
Full Support Modes
Full support modes include controlled mechanical ventilation, continuous mandatory...
