A respirable gas mixture sensor module () includes a first sensor (--) for measuring a gas and a second sensor (--) for measuring the same gas and apply different principles of measurement. The sensor module () is configured to determine a measurement result for the gas taking into account the measurements. As an alternative the sensor module () includes a first sensor group () including a first sensor (--) and a second sensor group () including a second sensor (--), each for measuring both a first and a second gas and apply different principles of measurement. The sensor module is configured to determine measurement results for the gases, taking into account the respective measurements of the first and second sensors. A ventilator, a therapy device and a method for measuring a plurality of gases of a respirable gas mixture are also provided.

A respiration device () supports cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and a method for operating a respiration device () supports cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The respiration device () has a control and regulation unit () in order to actuate an expiratory metering unit (), and an inspiratory metering unit () such that, in a first phase, a current value of pressure is increased relative to a first pre-defined value () and such that, in a second phase, the current value of the pressure is reduced relative to the first pre-defined value ().

Ventilation system

A device, such as a data network device for a medical data network, controls an operating state of a second medical device in such a way that by sending a request message, the second medical device is prompted to change over into the operating state of the combined therapy and hence into an operating state in which its actuator is controlled as a function of an information signal of the first medical device. The information signal is based on physiological measured values. As a result, a clinician does not have to configure the second medical device himself/herself directly on site at the medical device by inputting an input signal, but this can be carried out by the device.

Device for controlling an operating state of at least one medical device in a medical data network as well as medical device for a medical data network

A medical device includes a network interface, a processor unit, a memory unit, an actuator physiologically acting on a patient and/or a sensor interface detecting a sensor signal indicative of a patient physiological parameter. The network interface receives a sender network identity data message, a sender authorization level and a sender change request to change an actuator operating parameter and/or a predefined alarm detection value. The memory unit provides a predefined minimum authorization level. The processor unit determines an actual authorization of the sender to change the operating parameter and/or to predefine a value on the basis of the sender authorization level and of the predefined minimum authorization level as well as to change the operating parameter as a function of the result of the determination and/or to perform a detection of an alarm generation state as a function of the indicated predefined value and of the sensor signal.

A device for detecting the condition of flow in a respiration system combines the function of a nonreturn valve with the function of flow measurement in a common device. The device includes a valve arrangement () with a valve disk () and with a valve body (), wherein the position of a valve disk () in relation to a valve seat () is detected. An indicator for a flow and a direction of flow (), () is determined from the position of the valve disk (). The position of the valve disk () can be determined inductively, electrically, electromechanically or optically. The flow and direction of flow (), () determined can be used to control the respiration in a medical device.
