System and method for mobilizing occlusions from a breathing tube

摘要

A method for mobilizing an occlusion from a breathing tube is presented. The method includes automatically mobilizing the occlusion from the breathing tube by regulating an inspiratory flow, an expiratory flow, or a combination thereof, where the breathing tube is configured to operationally couple a patient to a ventilation system, and where the ventilation system is configured to provide artificial respiration to the patient.

1. A method of mobilizing an occlusion from a breathing tube, comprising automatically mobilizing the occlusion from the breathing tube by regulating an inspiratory flow and an expiratory flow by lowering the inspiratory flow and increasing the expiratory flow such that a peak expiratory flow is greater than a peak inspiratory flow to mobilize the occlusion from the breathing tube, wherein the breathing tube is configured to operationally couple a patient to a ventilation system, and wherein the ventilation system is configured to provide artificial respiration to a patient.
