<p>The invention is directed to a system and method for controlling the flow of gas from a medical ventilator into a patient's lungs. The control system provides for a non-linear feedforward controller to correct for disturbances caused by back pressure at the outlet of the blower of the medical ventilator. For this purpose, a pressure transducer is provided to measure the back pressure. Additionally, the invention allows for a feedback controller to correct for the differences between the rate of the actual gas flow and the targeted gas flow rate. For this purpose a flow rate transducer is provided. The control system may account for each of the gas flow rate error and the back pressure disturbance to provide for a quick and accurate adjustment to achieve the targeted gas flow rate.</p> |
