    A modified Ohio 560 ventilator enables synchronized differential pulmonary ventilation. This simple, inexpensive modification improves lung ventilation management compared to using multiple ventilators.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Devices
    • Respiratory Physiology

    Background:

    • Synchronized differential pulmonary ventilation is crucial for managing various respiratory conditions.
    • Current methods using multiple ventilators or external synchronizers can be complex and costly.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To modify the Ohio 560 ventilator for independent control of ventilation parameters.
    • To simplify and improve the ease of achieving synchronized differential lung ventilation.

    Main Methods:

    • The Ohio 560 ventilator was modified by separating deep breath and tidal volume bellows outputs.
    • Independent systems for volume, flow rate, PEEP, oxygen-humidification, and alarms were integrated.

    Main Results:

    • The modification is simple, inexpensive, and retains original ventilator performance.

  • Achieving differential lung ventilation is easier with the modified ventilator.

    • Conclusions:

    • The modified Ohio 560 ventilator offers a practical and cost-effective solution for synchronized differential pulmonary ventilation.
    • This approach simplifies lung ventilation management and may be superior to existing methods.
