Abstract

An efficient algorithm to estimate a respiratory system nonlinear model of sedated patients under assisted ventilation is presented. The considered model comprises an airways resistance and a volume-dependant compliance and, for each respiratory cycle, the proposed algorithm provides online the model parameters guaranteeing a minimum accuracy, above a user-defined threshold. Relying on standard nonlinear identification techniques, it exhibits computational burden reduction features, which contribute to its suitability for its online application.
