Physiological object displays
First Claim
1. A data object for visually displaying information of a ventilator and air intake of a patient in real time in a manner designed to minimize the cognitive steps required by a user to interpret the information, comprising an object display wherein the object display is divided into at least one object for visually displaying information in real time concerning a volume ventilator or a pressure ventilator and at least one object for visually displaying information in real time concerning a patient, wherein the object for visually displaying information in real time concerning the patient displays in real time physiological information concerning lung compliance, CO2 elimination and total air volume inhaled (“
- TVI) and wherein the object display includes at least one intuitive graphical representation or perceptual diagram of certain information.

12. A system for obtaining physiological information and displaying said information in real time in a manner designed to minimize the cognitive steps required by a user to interpret the information, comprising:
-
data acquisition means to acquire data relating to a ventilator and/or a patient connected to the ventilator;
a computer running software configured to map said acquired data onto a data object by relating a least one of said acquired data to at least one other of said acquired data, wherein the data object includes at least intuitive graphical representation or perceptual diagram; and
display means for displaying said data object wherein the object is divided into at least one object for visually displaying information in real time concerning a volume ventilator or a pressure ventilator and at least one object for visually displaying information in real time concerning air intake of a patient. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)
