System And Method For Detecting Sleep Onset In A Subject Based On Responsiveness To Breathing Cues
view source
US Patent:

20130066226, Mar 14, 2013
Filed:

Apr 25, 2011
Appl. No.:

13/697113
Inventors:

Leonardo Alberto Baloa Welzien - Lake Forest CA, US
Manuel Laura Lapoint - Pittsburgh PA, US
Sara Marie Sibenaller - Pittsburgh PA, US
Assignee:

KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS, N.V. - ENDHOVEN
International Classification:

A61B 5/00
A61B 5/087
A61B 5/03
A61B 5/08
A61M 16/00
US Classification:

600538, 600529
Abstract:

A wake-to-sleep transition for a subject is detected based on responsiveness to breathing cues provided to the subject. A pressurized flow of breathable gas to the airway of subject having one or more gas parameters that are adjusted to provide breathing cues to the subject. Based on a detected conformance of the respiration of the subject to the breathing cues, a determination is made as to whether the subject is awake or asleep.

Respiration-Rate Dependent Respiratory Assistance

US Patent:

20130284174, Oct 31, 2013
Filed:

Dec 12, 2011
Appl. No.:

13/995196
Inventors:

Sara Marie Sibenaller - Pittsburgh PA, US
Leonardo Alberto Baloa Welzien - Lake Forest CA, US
Manuel Laura Lapoint - Pittsburgh PA, US
Assignee:

Koninklijke Phillips Electronics N.V. - Eindhoven
International Classification:

A61M 16/00
US Classification:

12820423
Abstract:

Respiratory assistance is provided to a subject in the form of a pressurized flow of breathable gas. The pressure of the gas is eased during expiration and increased during inspiration. Changes in pressure are triggered and/or cycled based on the monitoring of tidal volume. Volume thresholds that cause triggering and/or cycling are adjusted based on an observed or measured breath rate.

US Patent:

20140020688, Jan 23, 2014
Filed:

Mar 28, 2012
Appl. No.:

14/007751
Inventors:

Sara Marie Sibenaller - Pittsburgh PA, US
Manuel Laura Lapoint - Pittsburgh PA, US
Leonardo Alberto Baloa Welzien - Pittsburgh PA, US
Assignee:

KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V. - EINDHOVEN
International Classification:

A61M 16/00
US Classification:

12820423, 12820421
Abstract:

A pressure support system () including a pressure generator that generates a pressurized flow of breathable gas to a subject and a processor () configured to execute computer program modules. The modules include a first mode module () controls the pressure generator according to a first mode of therapy wherein breathing cues are provided to the subject () according to a breathing regime. The breathing cues prompt the subject to consciously alter breathing parameters. The modules also include a second mode module () controls the pressure generator according to a second mode of therapy wherein the flow of breathable gas is provided to the subject () at a selected pressure or selectively variable pressures. The modules further include a transition module () that transitions between the first mode of therapy and a second mode of therapy wherein parameters of the pressurized flow of breathable gas is adjusted in response to a trigger event.

System And Method For Prompting A Subject To Alter One Or More Breathing Parameters

US Patent:

20120060838, Mar 15, 2012
Filed:

Apr 19, 2010
Appl. No.:

13/318017
Inventors:

Manuel Laura Lapoint - Pittsburgh PA, US
Sara Marie Sibenaller - Wilkinsburg PA, US
Assignee:

KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS N.V. - EINDHOVEN
International Classification:

A61M 16/00
US Classification:

12820421, 12820418
Abstract:

A subject is prompted to consciously alter one or more breathing parameters of respiration. To prompt the subject to alter one or more breathing parameters, a pressurized flow of breathable gas is provided to the airway of the subject. One or more gas parameters of the gas in the pressurized flow of breathable gas are adjusted to provide breathing cues to the subject that encourage the subject to consciously adjust respiration such that the one or more breathing parameters are altered. Information is also conveyed to the subject through a user interface that dynamically provides information to the subject about the breathing cues.
