Mechanical ventilator configuration for mechanical ventilation of a patient with limited or no imaging data of the patient

Abstract

A non-transitory storage medium stores instructions readable and executable by at least one electronic processor to receive clinical data for a current patient (P); search a database of CT scans and/or patient-specific mechanical ventilation models for other patients using the clinical data for the current patient as a search criterion to identify a similar patient in the database and similar patient data (S) comprising a CT scan and/or a patient-specific mechanical ventilation model for the similar patient; determine a patient-specific mechanical ventilation model for the current patient based on the CT scan and/or patient-specific mechanical ventilation model for the similar patient; generate ventilator configuration data for mechanically ventilating the current patient based on the determined patient-specific mechanical ventilation model for the current patient.
