Abstract
A method for assisting a patient in weaning from a therapy, the method being executed by a controller, and the controller being configurable with different at least one weaning strategy. The method includes setting, based on at least one input by a user, a target weaning strategy among the at least one weaning strategy, where the at least one input corresponds to a clinical decision determined by the user.
Claims22
A method for assisting a patient in weaning from a therapy, wherein the method is executed by a controller comprising a memory, and the method comprises:
- receiving, by the controller before the therapy, multiple weaning strategies input into the controller;
- storing, by the controller, the multiple weaning strategies into the memory;
- receiving, by the controller during the therapy, at least one input of a user, wherein the at least one input corresponds to a clinical decision determined by the user and is used for selecting a target weaning strategy among the multiple weaning strategies stored in the memory;
- setting, by the controller based on the at least one input of the user, the target weaning strategy selected from the multiple weaning strategies;
- and
- controlling, by the controller based on the set target weaning strategy, an oxygen provider which provides oxygen-enriched gas to the patient;
- wherein the method further comprises:
- receiving, by the controller, a physiological parameter of the patient transmitted by at least one measurement device associated with the patient;
- determining, by the controller based on the physiological parameter and the target weaning strategy, whether the patient is in a target state to obtain a determination result, wherein the determination result indicates whether a condition of the patient is stable;
- and
- adjusting, by the controller according to the determination result, at least one of a flow rate and a FiO2 of the gas provided to the patient.

A controller, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a memory communicatively connected with the at least one processor;
- wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor, and the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- receive, before the therapy, multiple weaning strategies input into the controller;
- store the multiple weaning strategies into the memory;
- receive, during the therapy, at least one input of a user, wherein the at least one input corresponds to a clinical decision determined by the user and is used for selecting a target weaning strategy among the multiple weaning strategies stored in the memory;
- set the target weaning strategy selected from the multiple weaning strategies, based on the at least one input of the user;
- and
- control, based on the set target weaning strategy, an oxygen provider which provides oxygen-enriched gas to the patient;
- wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- receive a physiological parameter of a patient transmitted by at least one measurement device associated with the patient;
- determine, based on the physiological parameter and the target weaning strategy, whether the patient is in a target state to obtain a determination result, wherein the determination result indicates whether a condition of the patient is stable;
- and
- adjust, according to the determination result, at least one of a flow rate and a FiO2 of the gas provided to the patient.
15-18. (canceled)
A respiratory device, comprising a controller, wherein the controller comprises:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a memory communicatively connected with the at least one processor;
- wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor, and the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- receive, before the therapy, multiple weaning strategies input into the controller;
- store the multiple weaning strategies into the memory;
- receive, during the therapy, at least one input of a user, wherein the at least one input corresponds to a clinical decision determined by the user and is used for selecting a target weaning strategy among the multiple weaning strategies stored in the memory;
- set the target weaning strategy selected from the multiple weaning strategies, based on the at least one input of the user;
- and
- control, based on the set target weaning strategy, an oxygen provider which provides oxygen-enriched gas to the patient;
- wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- receive a physiological parameter of a patient transmitted by at least one measurement device associated with the patient;
- determine, based on the physiological parameter and the target weaning strategy, whether the patient is in a target state to obtain a determination result, wherein the determination result indicates whether a condition of the patient is stable;
- and
- adjust, according to the determination result, at least one of a flow rate and a FiO2 of the gas provided to the patient.
