Introduction

Michael Bender is an inventor associated with Lübeck, Germany, and Drägerwerk AG & Co. KGaA. His patent work includes a ventilator designed to support mechanical ventilation of patients.

Latest Patents

Bender is credited with 1 patent: “Ventilator for the Mechanical Ventilation of a Patient.” The invention uses a sensor unit to measure gas-flow-dependent values in a ventilator’s breathing circuit. A processing unit analyzes the measurements to determine end-expiratory gas flow and adjusts the ratio between inspiration and expiration times according to threshold values. This approach enables ventilation parameters to respond to measured conditions during a breathing cycle.

Career Highlights

Bender’s listed patent connects his work with medical ventilation technology at Drägerwerk AG & Co. KGaA, a company known for developing medical and safety equipment.

Collaborations

Tilman von Blumenthal is identified as Bender’s coworker. The available information does not specify his role in the patent or whether he collaborated directly on the invention.

Conclusion

Michael Bender’s patent describes a sensor-guided ventilator that adjusts breathing-cycle timing based on measured gas flow, reflecting an engineering contribution to mechanical ventilation.
