Abstract:
The construction of an intelligent remote management platform for respiratory therapy, utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) and the electronic medical record system (EMR), has significant potential to improve the management of respiratory therapy in critically ill patients. This platform includes the development of a dedicated respiratory therapy EMR, the integration of data from multiple mechanical ventilators from different vendors and models, and the utilization of AI-assisted analysis to understand the pathophysiology of respiratory diseases and the complex physiological factors that influence specific interventions, thereby supporting diagnosis, treatment guidance, and prognosis prediction. In addtion, a network will be established to provide seamless connectivity between hospitals and wards. The resulting platform enables the collection of medical device data from multiple points within the hospital, real-time data analysis, and timely alarms, thereby facilitating remote data access, centralization of information, and standardization of data. As a result, the platform enables efficient intra-hospital and inter-hospital doctor-patient management. Despite the benefits offered by this platform, certain challenges need to be addressed, including ensuring data privacy and security, as well as managing the financial and human resources required for its implementation and maintenance. Furthermore, continuous optimization of the platform is crucial, and the clinical use of the platform requires appropriate professional training.

Physiological Control of Respiration
Breathing, a seemingly passive process, is regulated by the respiratory center in the brainstem. This center coordinates the involuntary control of respirations, which means it occurs without conscious effort, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted pattern.
Regulation of Ventilation
The body maintains ventilation by monitoring levels of carbon dioxide (CO2), oxygen (O2), and hydrogen ion concentration (pH) in the arterial blood. Among these factors, the level of CO2 plays a crucial...
