Intelligent Ventilator INVENT
Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject SummaryA ventilator is a machine that provides mechanical ventilation by moving breathable air into and out of the lungs, to deliver breaths to a patient who is physically unable to breathe, or breathing insufficiently. The University of Faisalabad students working on an intelligent ventilator. INVENT, due to covid-19, we are facing the problem in hospitals shortage of Ventilator So, we are working on Intelligent Ventilator and our ventilator based on Mechanical Breathing with ambo. Initially, we are using AVR Controllers to control the BVM or Resuscitator, or self-inflating bag, air quality control, and Air pressure applied on the patient body.
Project ObjectivesOur goal is to supply the simplest data we are able to, targeted around safety, on automating a manual breathing device, as a possible means that for longer-term ventilation. this is often a very off-label use, however we tend to acknowledge the world interest once a hospital has exhausted all ventilators and also the solely choice is manual fabric a patient. we tend to hope that such systems might function bridge devices and facilitate with the sorting of accessible respirators and clinicians trained in metastasis medical aid. this might enable less severe patients to be cared for by less specialized clinicians, whereas resources area unit targeted on those most in would like. However, at no time ought to a patient be unattended while not somebody masterly obtainable to directly monitor their very important signs. Effectively, we tend to area unit reprising the first days of safe ventilation wherever direct clinical observation of patient condition served because the key feedback.
Project Implementation MethodThe patient circuit usually consists of a set of three durables, yet lightweight plastic tubes, separated by function (e.g. inhaled air, patient pressure, exhaled air). Determined by the type of ventilation needed, the patient end of the circuit may be either non-invasive or invasive.
Noninvasive methods, such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and non-invasive ventilation, which are adequate for patients who require a ventilator only while sleeping and resting, mainly employ a nasal mask. Invasive methods require intubation, which for long-term ventilator dependence will normally be a tracheotomy cannula, as this is much more comfortable and practical for long-term care than is larynx or nasal intubation. At that level, we achieved controlled breathing with a resuscitator and we are using Noninvasive methods to breathe the patient.
Benefits of the ProjectVentilator has four main principles which we are using to set the mechanical breathing, one is tidal volume, secondly inhalation and exhalation (BPM), thirdly I.E Ratio, fourthly PEEP and we are also focusing on these four factors to make our Portable Vent. The Hospital Ventilator is not portable for Ambulances, Homes and this is too costly nearly about 4.5 Million, But Our device is Portable for Emergency in Hospitals, Ambulances, homes and our Ventilator (INVENT) is less in price and also easy to use. All of that work will be crucial in saving lives.
Technical Details of Final DeliverableInitially, we are using AVR Controllers to control the BVM or Resuscitator, or self-inflating bag, air quality control, and Air pressure applied on the patient body. We are working on MAX30100 Sensor which is used for SpO2 (Blood Saturation), ECG, Blood Pressure, and Oxygen level in the blood for Monitoring the patient's condition. We are also working on Air pressure on patient’s lungs and an air quality control system to maintain the room temperature and carbon dioxide (Co2). We are introducing Electro-Encephalography EEG in our Ventilator and some other parameters. Now, we are using LCDs for display but in the future, we will use HMI or TFT Displays in our Ventilator. Also, we are trying to improve our Ventilator at a professional level.
