RESPIRATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR A RESPIRATION DEVICE

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and a respiration device having a respiration unit for generating an airflow for the respiration and having a monitoring unit. The monitoring unit is used to detect a respiration parameter and to classify events in the respiration on the basis of monitoring of the respiration parameter. In this case, the monitoring unit is able and designed to carry out an event analysis to recognize an occurrence, which is characteristic for Cheyne-Stokes respiration, of chronologically successive events and for this purpose to ascertain the period length thereof and to compare them to one another and to register the presence of Cheyne-Stokes respiration when the compared period lengths each deviate by less than 40% from one another.

主权项

1. A respiration device, wherein the device comprises at least one respiration unit for generating an airflow for respiration and at least one monitoring unit for detecting at least one respiration parameter and for classifying events in the respiration on the basis of monitoring of the at least one respiration parameter, the monitoring unit being able and designed to carry out at least one event analysis to recognize an occurrence of chronologically successive events which is characteristic for Cheyne-Stokes respiration and for this purpose to ascertain period lengths between the chronologically successive events and to compare ascertained period lengths at least partially to one another and to register a presence of Cheyne-Stokes respiration when the compared period lengths deviate by less than 40% from one another.
