Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED TITRATION OF CONTINUOUS POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005120644
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Described is a method and system for automated titration of CPAP. The system may include an air pressure supply (22) providing air pressure to a patient's airways and a sensor (23) detecting input data corresponding to a patient's breathing patterns of a plurality of breaths. The system also includes a titration device (26) which receives and analyzes the input data to determine existence of breathing disorder and corresponding characteristics. The titration device generating output data for adjusting the air pressure supplied to the patient as a function of the characteristics of the breathing disorder.
