Abstract
The disclosure describes a novel approach for displaying information on a ventilator system. The disclosure describes a novel respiratory system including a primary display and system status display. Further, the disclosure describes a novel method for displaying ventilator information.
Claims20
A ventilation system comprising:
- a main housing;
- a gas delivery system in the main housing;
- a ventilation control system in the main housing that controls the gas delivery system and monitors one or more of a patient physiological parameter, operational parameters of the ventilation system and user-defined parameters;
- a primary display controller that generates a graphical user interface and that receives user inputs through the graphical user interface and delivers commands to the ventilation control system based on the inputs;
- a primary display housing removably attached to the main housing;
- a primary display in the primary display housing that presents the graphical user interface;
- and
- a system status display incorporated into the main housing that receives status data directly from the ventilation control system and the system status display displays a two-point perspective view depicting a physical configuration of a portion of the ventilation system, the two-point perspective identifying locations of actual physical components currently attached to the ventilation system.

A method for displaying ventilation information on a ventilation system comprising:
- displaying a first set of data on a primary display;
- controlling the primary display with a primary display controller;
- displaying a second set of data on a system status display;
- controlling the system status display with a ventilation control system;
- and
- displaying a two-point perspective view depicting a physical configuration of a portion of the ventilation system as a part of at least one of the first set of data and the second set of data, the two-point perspective identifying locations of actual physical components currently attached to the ventilation system.
