Display and access to settings on a ventilator graphical user interface
First Claim
1. A ventilator comprising a display device, the ventilator configured with a computer having a processor and a memory, the memory communicatively coupled to the processor and containing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the ventilator to provide a graphical user interface on the display device, the graphical user interface comprising:
- a first window associated with the graphical user interface, the first window comprising;
a plurality of actual ventilatory settings displayed according to a first visual arrangement in which each actual ventilatory setting is displayed with a size, a value and a position within the first visual arrangement; and
a setup icon; and
a second window concurrently displayed such that the first window is at least partially visible, wherein the second window is a setup window for adjusting the plurality of actual ventilatory settings displayed in the first window, and wherein the second window is displayed upon selection of the setup icon without displaying an intermediate setup window, the second window comprising;
a plurality of settings elements corresponding to the plurality of actual ventilatory settings, wherein each of the plurality of settings elements is selectable for adjusting a corresponding actual ventilatory setting, wherein each settings element is displayed with a size, a value and a position within the second visual arrangement that is the same as the size, the value and the position of the corresponding actual ventilatory setting within the first visual arrangement, and wherein the first visual arrangement of the first window and the second visual arrangement of the second window are concurrently visible on the graphical user interface.

Abstract
This disclosure describes improved systems and methods for displaying, accessing, and changing respiratory settings in a ventilatory system. Specifically, the present disclosure provides for one or more settings access elements, each corresponding to an individual ventilatory setting, for efficiently adjusting displayed ventilatory settings. Access elements may be easily identified as buttons, tabs, icons, or other access displays. After settings have been accessed and changed, pending settings changes may be visually identified on the GUI, or other user interface. In addition, pending settings changes associated with one or more screens of a GUI may be easily identified. Acceptance elements may also be provided which indicate whether one, multiple, or no pending settings changes are available for acceptance.
