Quick Initiation Of Respiratory Support Via A Ventilator User Interface
First Claim
1. A user interface for providing minimal-step ventilation setup for a patient, the ventilator configured with a computer having a user interface including a graphical user interface for accepting commands and for displaying information, the user interface comprising:
- at least one window associated with the user interface; and
one or more elements within the at least one window comprising one or more of;
one or more input elements for inputting patient data; and
a selection element for initiating ventilation according to a quick-start method.

Abstract
This disclosure describes improved systems and methods for efficiently configuring respiratory settings and/or parameters in a ventilatory system. Specifically, the present methods and user interface provide an efficient and consistent means for configuring ventilatory settings for a new patient. Specifically, the ventilator may be preconfigured with appropriate parameter settings based on an institution-specific protocol, a physician-specific protocol, or other suitable protocol or specification. Indeed, the present disclosure provides an institution and/or physician with increased control over routine ventilatory settings by pre-configuring the ventilator with these routine settings. Further, the present disclosure provides increased assurance as to the consistency of the routine ventilatory settings by eliminating repeated data entry by clinicians, decreasing the chances of error.
