<p>Method and apparatus for ventilating lungs of different compliance with predetermined ratio of volumes using one respirator, are provided. The method comprises pumping fluid into a first (12a), and second inspiratory passageways (12b), the first passageway being in fluid communication with a more resistive lung (100a), and the second passageway being in fluid communication with a less resistive lung (100b); and regulating the flow of fluid within the second passageway by means of a regulating element (18), the regulating element being automatically controlled by means of a controlling element (20) according to the volumes expired by the first and second lungs. The apparatus includes a single respirator (10); a first (12a) and second inspiratory passageways (12b) in fluid communication with respective first (100a), and second lungs (100b), the first lung being more resistive to ventilation than the second lung; a pneumatic regulating element (18) connected to the second passageway for regulating the flow of fluid within the second passageway; and a controlling element (20) for automatically controlling the regulating element based on the volumes expired by the first and second lungs.</p> |
