Abstract: This invention provides apparatus for collecting parameter disturbance information from each connected apparatus (16, 20) which can disturb measuring vital signs, and broadcasting a message regarding the disturbance and a coordinating clock signal to all apparatus (16, 18, 20, 21). Connected sensors (18, 21) susceptible to paramater disturbances identify them from the message and suppress their audible alarm during an interval given in the message. This eliminates false audible alarms caused by such disturbances. The disturbance interval can be extended for later disturbances unless it is a new source or disturbance type and the alarm is already suppressed. A brick wall timer limits the total maximum suppressed interval to a safe maximum. A recovery timer allows a sensor to recover from a parameter disturbance before responding to a subsequent one.

Abstract: INTERNATIONAL SEARCH REPORT The invention is directed to a system and method for controlling the flow of gas from a medical ventilator into a patient's lungs. The control system provides for a non-linear feedforward controller (64) to correct for disturbances caused by back pressure at the outlet of the blower (80) of the medical ventilator. For this purpose, a pressure transducer (68) is provided to measure the back pressure. Additionally, the invention allows for a feedback controller (60) to correct for the differences between the rate of the actual gas flow and the targeted gas flow rate. For this purpose a flow rate transducer (56) is provided. The control system may account for each of the gas flow rate error and the back pressure disturbance to provide for a quick and accurate adjustment to achieve the targeted gas flow rate.
