    VQ-ATTENDING is an expert system that evaluates mechanical ventilator management. It assesses proposed ventilator settings against patient data and treatment goals to ensure appropriate respiratory support.

    Area of Science:

    • Critical Care Medicine
    • Medical Informatics
    • Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare

    Background:

    • Mechanical ventilation is crucial for patients with respiratory failure.
    • Optimizing ventilator settings is complex and requires careful consideration of patient-specific factors.
    • Current methods for ventilator management may benefit from advanced decision support systems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce VQ-ATTENDING, an expert system designed to critique ventilator management.
    • To evaluate the system's capability in assessing appropriate treatment goals for mechanical ventilation.
    • To demonstrate how treatment goals can guide an expert system's analysis of ventilator settings.

    Main Methods:

    • Input of patient medical information, current arterial blood gas results, and current/proposed ventilator settings.

  • Development of an expert system (VQ-ATTENDING) to analyze and critique proposed ventilator adjustments.
  • Implementation of a feature allowing the system to assess and utilize treatment goals in its critique.

    • Main Results:

    • VQ-ATTENDING provides critiques on the appropriateness of proposed ventilator settings.
    • The system demonstrates the ability to incorporate treatment goals into its decision-making process.
    • The developmental implementation showcases the potential of AI in optimizing mechanical respiratory support.

    Conclusions:

    • Expert systems like VQ-ATTENDING can enhance the critical evaluation of ventilator management.
    • Integrating treatment goals into AI systems improves the precision of ventilator setting recommendations.
    • VQ-ATTENDING represents a novel approach to decision support in mechanical ventilation therapy.
