A respirator for supplying a patient with breathing is provided such that the respiration will not be compromised at the time of a changeover from one form of respiration to another form of respiration. Provisions are made for carrying out a first form of respiration with the corresponding first setting parameters and for taking over the corresponding setting parameters at least partially from the measured values determined during the first form of respiration and the first respiration parameters that remained invariant at the time of the changeover of the forms of respiration at the time of a changeover to a second form of respiration.

Respirator for different forms of respiration

An improved respirator with a breathing circuit ( ) and a corresponding process for operating the respirator are provided. Defined breathing gas volumes can be delivered to the patient and the current operating state can be reliably monitored despite a strong breathing gas volume flow being delivered in the breathing circuit ( ). A gas delivery element ( ) designed as a rotary compressor is connected on the inlet side to a reversible breathing gas reservoir ( ) and on the outlet side to a patient connection piece ( ) for inspiration via a first gas volume flow sensor ( ) with a first nonreturn valve ( ). A second gas volume flow sensor ( ) is located in the connection line between the patient connection piece ( ) and the patient being inspirated. The patient connection piece ( ) is connected for expiration to a second nonreturn valve ( ) via a third gas volume flow sensor ( ) and to the reversible breathing gas reservoir ( ) via a controllable shut-off valve ( ). At least one measuring and control device ( ) is connected to the gas volume flow sensors ( ), it receives their measured signals and sends control signals to the gas delivery element ( ) and to the controllable shut-off valve ( ).
