Definitions

  • This invention relates to an improved medical carbon dioxide (C02) monitoring system and, in particular, to a C02 monitoring method that automatically determines the effectiveness of intubation or other advanced airway placement therapy or cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) therapy, or respiration therapy as applied to the patient.
  • Respiration therapy could include monitoring the response to a bronchodilator medication for obstructive airway disease, such as asthma. The effectiveness of such therapy can be seen in the changing shape of the C02 waveform.
  • the system and method also determine the occurrence of the return of spontaneous circulation ( OSC) during treatment.
  • C02 monitoring systems are presently employed in hospital surgical suites and intensive care units to monitor a patient's respiration. Generally these systems are sophisticated and sizeable ventilation systems which monitor the patient's oxygen intake and respiratory C02. However, there are other scenarios where more advanced C02 monitoring is desirable.
  • One scenario is intubation or advanced airway placement, where air is being supplied to a patient by a respiration device the end of which is inserted into the patient's airway.
  • Another is the application of CPR to a patient stricken by cardiac arrest.
  • Another is when a person is in respiratory distress, such as from obstructive airway disease e.g., asthma, and respiratory therapy, such as a bronchodilator medication, is being applied while their expired C02 is being monitored.
  • a portable unit is desirable in such situations, such as the MRx defibrillator monitor produced by Koninklijke Philips North America ⁇ Andover, MA ⁇ , which may be used in a hospital but is portable and can be taken to the site of an accident or location of a stricken patient. It would be desirable for such a portable monitor to be capable of monitoring the C02 expiration of a patient and interpreting the C02 waveform in order to determine the effectiveness of the treatment applied in each of these situations.
  • intubation is a notoriously difficult procedure that if applied in error can be fatal to the patient.

L'invention concerne une méthode de capnographie médicale améliorée permettant de déterminer l'effet d'une thérapie sur un patient sous-jacent. La méthode permet de déterminer le placement d'un tube endotrachéal ou des voies respiratoires avancées approprié, l'efficacité de CPR et le retour de la circulation spontanée (ROSC) ou la perte de la circulation spontanée par utilisation d'un dispositif d'analyse de thérapie (36) mettant en œuvre un algorithme de thérapie d'analyse (336). La méthode peut être mise en œuvre dans un logiciel ou un matériel indépendant d'une plate-forme.
