A method of providing a breath to a human patient having a patient connection connected by a patient circuit to a ventilator device. The method includes delivering both a bolus of oxygen and breathing gases including air to the patient circuit. The patient circuit conducts the bolus of oxygen and the breathing gases to the patient connection. The breathing gases are delivered before an end of the inspiratory phase of the breath. The bolus may be delivered at or before a beginning of an inspiratory phase of the breath, and the delivery of the bolus may be terminated before the end of the inspiratory phase of the breath. The bolus and breathing gases are delivered to the patient circuit via different ventilator connections that isolate the bolus from the breathing gases before they enter the patient circuit.
A method of providing a breath to a human patient using a ventilator device, a patient circuit having a first end coupled to the ventilator device and a second end spaced apart from the ventilator device, and a patent connection configured to be coupled to the human patient, the breath having an inspiratory phase with a beginning and an end, the method comprising:
A ventilator device for use with an oxygen source and a patient circuit configured to receive breathing gases and oxygen to provide a breath to a human patient having a patient connection couplable to the patient circuit, the breath having an inspiratory phase with a beginning and an end, the ventilator device comprising:
A ventilator device for use with a patient circuit configured to receive breathing gases and oxygen to provide a breath to a human patient having a patient connection couplable to the patient circuit, the breath having an inspiratory phase with a beginning and an end, the ventilator device comprising:
A ventilation system for use with a human patient having a patient connection couplable to a patient circuit, the system comprising:
A method of providing a breath to a human patient using a ventilator device, a patient circuit having a first end coupled to the ventilator device and a second end spaced apart from the ventilator device, and a patent connection configured to be coupled to the human patient, the breath having an inspiratory phase with a beginning and an end, and the breath have a total tidal volume, the method comprising:
