Respiratory Equipment and Method for Controlling Respiratory Equipment
First Claim
1. A ventilator, which has a respiratory gas source that can be connected with a patient interface and a control unit designed for presetting at least two different ventilation modes, wherein the control unit is designed for the automatic determination, selection, and application of the various ventilation modes in at least some respiratory disorders according to a current patient-specific requirement.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a device for operating or controlling respiratory equipment. According to the invention, a respiratory gas source, which can be connected to a patient interface, is coupled to a control unit. The control unit is configured to specify at least two different respiratory modes. The various respiratory modes are determined, selected and used for at least some respiratory disorders according to a current patient-specific requirement. The control unit is configured to automatically execute the control operations.

53. A ventilator, which has a respiratory gas source that can be connected with a patient interface and a control unit designed for presetting at least two different ventilation modes, wherein a sensor for detecting at least one parameter is connected to the control unit, where the control unit is equipped with an event detection system, where the control unit has an analyzer for assigning a weighting to different classes of events, where the analyzer forms an event index within a predeterminable evaluation interval as a function of the frequency of the events per interval of time, and where the control unit predetermines a pressure change as a function of the exceeding of threshold values, such that different threshold values are assigned to different levels of ventilation pressure changes that are to be made.
