Abstract
Disclosed are methods, apparatus and systems for treating a respiratory disorder in a patient. The apparatus comprises a pressure generator configured to generate a flow of air so as to provide ventilatory support to the patient; a transducer configured to generate a flow signal representing a property of the flow of air; and a controller configured to analyse the flow signal to estimate the inspiratory volume and the expiratory volume of a breath of the patient and servo-control the degree of ventilatory support to adjust an estimated tidal volume toward a target tidal volume. A gain of the servo-control is dependent on a difference between the estimated inspiratory volume and the estimated expiratory volume. The method comprises operating an apparatus or system in a similar manner.
