A diagnostic device is disclosed for characterisation of particles from a patient's airways, such as a lung, when ventilated by a ventilator, and/or for control thereof, comprising a particle detecting unit configured to be connected to a conduit for passing expiration fluid from said patient, for obtaining data related to particles being exhaled from said patient's airways.

Device and method for non-invasive analysis of particles during medical ventilation

A system including a breathing apparatus and a processor is configured to raise a first positive end-expiratory pressure PEEP level to at least a second PEEP level above said first PEEP level and subsequently lowering said second PEEP level to said first PEEP level and to calculate a lung mechanics equation relating total lung volume above functional residual capacity (FRC) to transpulmonary pressure (PTP) of a lung connected to said breathing apparatus, based on a change in end-expiratory lung volume (DEELV) between said first PEEP level and said second PEEP level.
