Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems and method of controlling the pressure level of a gas mixture being delivered to a patient via a pressure support device adapted to provide breathing support to a patient that varies with time. More specifically, the systems and methods described herein enable the accurate detection of active inspiration by the patient and the fast triggering of an increased inspiratory positive airway pressure pulse. Further, the systems and methods described rely upon the patient pressure measured along a turbulent gas flow path and finds particular application when the pressure support device is configured to provide a non-zero positive end-expiratory pressure.
