Ventilatory stabilization technology

   
   

A system for reducing central sleep apnea (CSA) is described in which certain methods of increasing a patient's rebreathing during periods of the sleep cycle are used. By increasing rebreathing during periods of overbreathing, the over-oxygenation which typically results from the overbreathing period can be reduced, thus reducing the compensating underbreathing period and effectively reducing the loop gain associated with the central sleep apnea.

Um sistema para reduzir o apnea central do sono (CSA) é descrito em que determinados métodos de aumentar um paciente que rebreathing durante períodos do ciclo do sono são usados. Aumentando rebreathing durante períodos do overbreathing, o sobre-over-oxygenation que resulta tipicamente do período do overbreathing pode ser reduzido, assim reduzir o período underbreathing de compesação e eficazmente reduzir o ganho do laço associado com o apnea central do sono.
