1. A method of searching for an optima mode of ventilation from a plurality of modes of ventilation in a ventilator, comprising the steps of:

  • measuring parameters related to properties of a respiratory system of a patient;

    forming a mathematical description of the respiratory system based on the measured parameters;

    forming mathematic descriptions for different modes of ventilation, testing the mathematical descriptions for different modes of ventilation on the mathematical description of the respiratory system for determining simulated results, comparing the simulated results with a therapeutic goal to be achieved, and identifying the mode of ventilation providing a simulated result which comes closest to the therapeutic goal as the optimal mode.
