Aspects of the technology include methods and systems for performing remote adjustments to a ventilator with a remote device. A remote device may include an interactive display including a remote position indicator. The remote position indicator may be associated or correlated with a local ventilator position indicator. A selection and/or adjustment at the remote device (or an activation at the remote device) at the interactive display may result in a selection, adjustment, or activation at the ventilator. Information may be transmitted to the ventilator from the remote device to remotely adjust the ventilator. Additionally or alternatively, the remote device may additionally display a view of, or replicate, some or all portions of the ventilator display.
