Multi-Level User Interface for a Breathing Assistance System
First Claim
1. A ventilator system, comprising:
- a programmable ventilator configured for ventilating a patient based on settings for a plurality of ventilation parameters; and
a multi-level graphic user interface (GUI) communicatively coupled to the ventilator and configured to display a view menu allowing a user to select from multiple different views providing different levels of user access to the ventilation parameters, the multiple different views including;
a first view displaying values for a first set of the ventilation parameters, each value comprising either a monitored value or a setting for a ventilation parameter, the first view further providing user access for adjusting the setting for at least one of the first set of the ventilation parameters; and
a second view displaying values for a second set of the ventilation parameters, each value comprising either a monitored value or a setting for a ventilation parameter, the second view further providing access for adjusting the setting for at least one of the second set of the ventilation parameters, wherein the second set of ventilation parameters is larger than the first set of ventilation parameters.

Abstract
A ventilator system includes a ventilator configured for ventilating a patient based on a plurality of ventilation parameters, and a multi-level graphic user interface (GUI) coupled to the ventilator. The multi-level GUI may be configured to display a view menu allowing a user to select from multiple different views providing different levels of user access to the ventilation parameters. The multiple different views may include a first view and a second view. The first view may display values for a first set of ventilation parameters, and user access for adjusting the setting for at least one of the first set of the ventilation parameters. The second view may display values for a second set of the ventilation parameters, and access for adjusting the settings for at least one of the second set of the ventilation parameters. The second set of ventilation parameters may be larger than the first set of ventilation parameters.

21. A ventilator system, comprising:
-
a ventilator configured for ventilating a patient based on settings for a plurality of ventilation parameters; and a graphic user interface (GUI) for use with the ventilator, the GUI including a touch screen display configured to display multiple different views; wherein the multiple different views provide different levels of user access for adjusting one or more of the ventilation parameters; wherein the multiple different views include at least one restricted access view; and wherein the GUI is configured to manage user access to each restricted access view by requiring a user to enter particular input in order to access the restricted access view. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24)
