Mechanical ventilator flow and pressure sensors: Does location matter?

Journal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2023
Introduction Accurate measurements of ventilatory outputs are crucial during mechanical ventilation support. These measurements are achieved through sensors that monitor parameters such as flow/volumes and pressures. External and internal flow sensors

Bi-level home ventilators for non invasive positive pressure ventilation [PDF]

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2004
With the widespread use of non-invasive positive pressure mechanical ventilation, great efforts have been made to produce machines, the bi-level home ventilators, which are less sophisticated, cheaper and able to better compensate air leaks with respect ...

Design and performance of a flow sensor CoroQuant used with emergency lung ventilator CoroVent during COVID-19 pandemic

Measurement: Sensors, 2022
At the time of COVID-19 pandemic onset in spring 2020 a project CoroVent was initiated with the aim to design and produce emergency lung ventilators and distribute them to hospitals. No flow and tidal volume sensors were available for the project.
