Abstract

We have built a device for use within the hospital and at home that is designed to warn of circuit disconnection when used in conjunction with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy delivered via ventilators or CPAP generating systems. The Royal Children's Hospital CPAP alarm is a compact, battery operated alarm and monitor of circuit pressure. The device includes intrinsic safety features including a safety blow-off valve, a high pressure alarm and design features that make the device practical, safe and easy to use by both trained hospital personnel and home care attendants with limited training.

摘要

我们制造了一种可在医院和家中使用的设备，该设备旨在与通过呼吸机或持续气道正压通气（CPAP）发生系统进行的持续气道正压通气（CPAP）治疗配合使用时，对电路断开发出警报。皇家儿童医院CPAP警报器是一种紧凑的、由电池供电的电路压力警报器和监测器。该设备具有本质安全特性，包括安全放气阀、高压警报，以及一些设计特性，这些特性使该设备对于训练有素的医院工作人员和经过有限培训的家庭护理人员而言既实用、安全又易于使用。
