Abstract

A system (10) for preventing the delivery of hypoxic gases during respiratory support of a patient includes a breathing circuit (14). An input device (54) is operable by a clinician to input at least one ventilator parameter value. A fresh gas manifold (34) is pneumatically connected to the breathing circuit (14) and the fresh gas manifold (34) is configured to provide at least oxygen and balanced gas to the breathing circuit (14). A digital signal processor (36) is communicatively connected to the input device (54) and the fresh gas manifold (34). The digital signal processor (36) receives the input at least one ventilation parameter value, calculate a predicted oxygen concentration, and compares the predicted oxygen concentration to a predetermined minimal oxygen required threshold of the patient. A method of preventing the delivery of hypoxic gases to a patient includes providing ventilatory support to the patient through a breathing circuit. A digital signal processor (36) receives a ventilation parameter value from an input device (54). The digital signal processor calculates a predicted oxygen concentration, compares the predicted oxygen concentration to a predetermined hypoxic concentration threshold and accepts the ventilation parameter value if the predicted oxygen concentration is above the predetermined hypoxic concentration threshold.
