VENTILATOR FOR SUPPLYING RESPIRATORY GAS
Abstract
[0000] The invention relates to a ventilator (100) and a control device (120) for controlling a respiratory gas source of a ventilator, in particular for newborns, wherein the control device comprises: (i) a target value providing unit (121) which is configured to provide a target value of the arterial CO2 partial pressure, (ii) a minute volume determination unit (122) which is configured to determine a target value of a minute volume based on the target value of the arterial CO2 partial pressure and a determined value or a value for the arterial CO2 partial pressure derived from the end-tidal CO2 partial pressure if the determined value or the value for the arterial CO2 partial pressure derived from the end-tidal CO2 partial pressure lies outside a first predefined value range around the target value of the arterial CO2 partial pressure or lies within the first predefined value range for a time period less than a predefined time period, and (iii) a respiratory gas source control unit (123) which is configured to receive the target value of the minute volume and to control the respiratory gas source based on the target value of the minute volume. The ventilator according to the invention allows particularly gentle ventilation.
