A sequential, multi-modal, multi-patient mechanical ventilation system

A multifunctional ventilation device comprising:

• an intake manifold assembly configured to receive a gas from at least one of a plurality of gas sources;
• a first outlet manifold assembly configured and adapted to be in fluidic connection with the intake manifold assembly, the first outlet manifold assembly including a first plurality of patient outlets, the first outlet manifold assembly being configured and adapted to deliver continuous airflow;
• a second outlet manifold assembly configured and adapted to be in fluidic connection with the intake manifold assembly, the second outlet manifold assembly including a second plurality of patient outlets, the second outlet manifold assembly being configured and adapted to deliver periodic, sequential or simultaneous airflow;
• a first proportional master air valve configured to provide precise airflow to the first outlet manifold assembly, the first proportional master air valve being in fluidic connection with at least the first outlet manifold assembly;
• a second proportional master air valve configured to provide precise airflow to the second outlet manifold assembly, the second proportional master air valve being in fluidic connection with at least the second outlet manifold assembly;
• and
• a control system including:
• a plurality of valves including the first and second proportional master air valve;
• a plurality of sensors;
• and
• a processor configured to:
• control the plurality of valves, and
• measure data from the plurality of sensors;
• wherein the control system is programmed to selectively provide continuous, periodic, sequential or simultaneous delivery of the gas to a patient air delivery system;
• wherein each of the first plurality of patient outlets are fluidically equidistant from the first proportional master air valve;
• and
• wherein each of the second plurality of patient outlets are fluidically equidistant from the second proportional master air valve.
