Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent medical devices, and particularly to an intelligent ventilator and an intelligent ventilation control system and method based on respiratory sound monitoring. Background Art
[0002] Mechanical ventilation refers to a medical intervention measure that uses medical devices such as ventilators to maintain the patency of a patient's airway and improve the patient's oxygenation effect, so as to reduce the patient's respiratory failure. The ventilation modes of existing ventilators mainly rely on preset parameters (such as tidal volume, respiratory rate) or patient physiological signals (such as airway pressure, blood oxygen saturation) for control, lacking real-time and direct perception of the pulmonary pathophysiological state. When a patient has airway spasm, atelectasis or secretion retention, medical staff must judge and manually adjust the ventilation parameters through intermittent auscultation or imaging examination, which has problems such as response lag, heavy workload and human-machine differences. Existing studies have shown that different abnormal breath sounds (wheezing, crackles, rhonchi, pleural friction rub) are closely related to parameters such as airway resistance and alveolar recruitment. If respiratory sounds can be collected and identified in real time and automatically fed back into the ventilator control logic, true "ventilation according to lung conditions" can be achieved.
[0003] For example, Patent CN118490944A discloses a ventilator and its ventilation mode control method, which calculates the drive ratio corresponding to the drive parameters between the ventilator and the user, sets the pressure adjustment parameters that change with the drive ratio, and then calculates the pressure adjustment amount corresponding to the next respiratory cycle according to the tidal volume deviation corresponding to the current respiratory cycle. In addition, Patent CN118022114A discloses a control method for the duration of mechanical ventilation, which sequentially performs blood oxygen saturation detection, inhaled oxygen concentration detection, pH value detection, spontaneous breathing detection, and tolerance monitoring when the ventilator operates in a preset ventilation mode according to preset ventilation parameters, and judges whether the condition for ending mechanical ventilation is reached. In addition, the literature "Research on Key Technologies of Intelligent Ventilation of Ventilators" points out that existing ventilators still have delays in synchronization and cannot respond to the patient's spontaneous breathing needs in real time.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned existing technologies have the following defects: 1. Signal lag: Existing ventilation technologies comprehensively adjust according to physiological parameters such as pulse oxygen saturation and carbon dioxide partial pressure and ventilator mechanical ventilation parameters. However, the human blood gas model corresponding to the former has a certain lag and cannot directly correspond to the state of the breathing process, which is likely to cause a delay in ventilation mode adjustment. In addition, due to the strong compensatory ability of the respiratory system, the oxygenation parameters cannot predict the change of the breathing state, and it is easy for the patient's breathing state to decline sharply and the ventilator ventilation mode fails to make compensation in advance.
[0005] 2. Insufficient adaptability: Currently, the preset parameters of the ventilator cannot dynamically match the instantaneous changes in the patient's respiratory state (such as coughing, wheezing, etc.), and the corresponding air pressure and flow adjustment modes cannot handle the abnormal sudden changes in respiratory parameters (such as events like patient movement, tracheal detachment, sudden onset of diseases, etc.), resulting in a conflict between mechanical ventilation and the actual respiratory state of the human body, causing discomfort and even air pressure damage.

[0031] The beneficial effects of the intelligent ventilation control system of the ventilator based on breath sound monitoring according to the embodiments of the present invention are as follows: 1. Improvement in evaluation accuracy: A respiratory dynamics evaluation model with strong generalization ability is constructed based on the spectral feature analysis technology of breath sound signals, realizing non-invasive and high-precision evaluation of the respiratory system, and being able to directly feedback the ventilation quality of the respiratory system; 2.

Strong dynamic adaptability: The respiratory pattern classifier based on the deep convolutional neural network can accurately identify normal respiratory patterns and abnormal respiratory events (including coughing, wheezing, apnea, etc.), and give dynamic adjustment opinions according to normal and abnormal respiratory patterns; 4. Strong anti-noise ability: It is relatively less affected by non-ideal factors such as environmental noise under the condition of non-invasive physiological monitoring, and has higher monitoring accuracy and lower operation difficulty compared with methods such as carbon dioxide partial pressure detection.
[0032] Exemplarily, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the preprocessing unit 302 includes an analog front end and an analog-to-digital conversion circuit, which is used to perform band-pass filtering on the breath sound signal in the range of 50 Hz to 2000 Hz and digitize it at a sampling rate of not less than 4 kHz. Specifically, in this embodiment, a high-sensitivity acceleration contact microphone sensor is used, and the MCU compensation algorithm is used to make up for the bandwidth defect of the accelerometer and the tape coupling strength defect, and the wide-band real breath sound signal of the patient is collected in real time; the breath sound signal is time-synchronized with the airway pressure / flow signal.
[0033] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 is the flowchart of breath sound acquisition and signal processing of another embodiment of the present invention.

[0038] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 7 , Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of the closed-loop parameter adjustment logic state machine of another embodiment of the present invention. The ventilator controller 304 dynamically switches the ventilation mode (such as assist-control ventilation, pressure support ventilation) according to the respiratory sound features, and adjusts parameters such as tidal volume and inspiratory-expiratory ratio in real time through a closed-loop feedback system to ensure man-machine synchronization and quickly adjust the ventilation pressure in real time for monitoring sudden abnormal times.
[0039] Wheezing: Extend expiration, relatively decrease the respiratory rate, shorten the inspiratory time, and the ratio can be adjusted to 1:3 - 1:4; Crackles: Gradually increase the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in stages, +2 cm H2O each time until the crackles are significantly weakened; Rhonchi: Issue a suction alarm and select airway impact ventilation; Pleural friction rub: Automatically decrease the tidal volume, limit the plateau pressure, and increase the synchronous trigger sensitivity.
[0040] Exemplarily, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the ventilator controller 304 is further specifically configured to: calculate the confidence and duration of various abnormal breath sounds in real time; perform a weighted severity score on multiple co-existing abnormal breath sounds based on a preset clinical hazard level weight table; determine the ventilation parameter adjustment priority according to the scoring result, and execute a hierarchical intervention strategy.

Specifically, the human-machine interaction unit 305 can implement real-time spectrograms, color marking of abnormal types; adjustment suggestion pop-up windows and confirmation logic; one-key switching between automatic / manual, log and historical trend tracking, etc.
[0042] Exemplarily, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, it further includes a safety monitoring unit 306; the safety monitoring unit 306 is used to automatically deactivate the closed-loop adjustment and alarm when a sensor failure or parameter over-limit is detected.
