Abstract

Open-source ventilators (OSVs) are considered as an immediate response for the shortages of ventilator equipment in hospitals due to the ongoing global pandemic caused by the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). One of the designs explored for OSVs utilizes a bag-valve-mask as a source for mechanical ventilation. Despite its availability for use and being medically accepted, proper calibration must be observed in measuring ventilator scalars such as inspiratory pressure, inspiratory flow, and tidal volume to promote the safe use of the OSV and prevent OSV users to do more harm to the patient. This study discusses different calibration techniques to properly acquire ventilator scalar measurements using an integrated ventilator scalar measurement module. All in all, different calibration setups and bag-valve-mask-based mechanisms were tested and documented to determine an effective means to acquire accurate and precise ventilator scalar measurements.

基于袋阀罩的应急通风机集成通风机标量测量模块的校准与测试

开源呼吸机(osv)被认为是应对2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)全球大流行导致医院呼吸机设备短缺的即时对策。探索osv的一种设计利用袋式阀罩作为机械通风的来源。尽管OSV可供使用并且在医学上被接受，但在测量呼吸机标量(如吸气压力、吸气流量和潮气量)时必须进行适当的校准，以促进OSV的安全使用，防止OSV使用者对患者造成更多伤害。本研究讨论了不同的校准技术，以正确地获得通风机标量测量使用集成通风机标量测量模块。总而言之，不同的校准设置和基于袋阀面罩的机制进行了测试和记录，以确定获得准确和精确的通风机标量测量的有效方法。
