Ventilator-Initiated Prompt In Response To Proposed Setting Adjustment
First Claim
1. A ventilator-implemented method for issuing a prompt in response to a proposed setting adjustment during ventilation of a patient, the method comprising:
- receiving the proposed setting adjustment;
retrieving a patient diagnosis, at least some collected ventilatory data, and one or more current ventilatory settings; and
determining and displaying a projected impact of the proposed setting adjustment based on the one or more current ventilatory settings, the patient diagnosis, and the at least some collected ventilatory data.

Abstract
This disclosure describes systems and methods for issuing a prompt in response to one or more proposed settings adjustments. Specifically, the prompt may include a projected impact of the one or more proposed settings adjustments on patient condition and/or patient treatment. The prompt may further provide an impact level and/or an alert associated with the projected impact. According to embodiments, one or more recommendations for alternative settings adjustments may be provided on the prompt or on an extension of the prompt. According to embodiments, a clinician may scroll through a plurality of potential settings adjustments until a desired impact level is displayed on the prompt (e.g., a positive impact level). According to still other embodiments, a plurality of proposed settings adjustments may be received. In this case, the projected impact displayed on the prompt may represent a combined projected impact of the plurality of proposed settings adjustments received.
