Ventilator for Rapid Response to Respiratory Disease Conditions
First Claim
1. A method of manufacturing a ventilator comprising the steps of:
- a. Obtaining main housing, wherein the main housing comprises;
i. a first housing with internal structures formed to support enclosure of a first component set and a second component set, wherein the first housing further comprises at least one patient connection port;
ii. a second housing with internal structures formed to support enclosure of a third component set and a fourth component set, wherein the second housing further comprises an exhaust port; and
iii. a third housing with internal structures formed to support enclosure of an alarm printed circuit board (PCB);
b. Obtaining the first, second, third and fourth component sets;
c. Obtaining a printed circuit board (PCB) having an alarm circuit; and
d. Enclosing the first and second component sets in the first housing;
the third and fourth component sets in the second housing and the PCB within the third housing.

Abstract
The present specification discloses a ventilator system that can be manufactured quickly with minimal skill requirements and rapidly deployed in response to epidemic respiratory disease conditions. In one embodiment, the ventilator, having a minimal number of controls, is used to give ventilation or mechanical breathing to a patient suffering ARDS. The mechanical ventilation is based on pressure control and has variable pressure, breathing rate, and oxygenation. Preferably, the ventilator is rapidly deployable, easy and intuitive to operate, and capable of sustaining at least 75% of epidemic respiratory distress victims who require assisted ventilation until resuming normal breathing.
