Neonatal-ventilator

Using Simulink and Simscape blocks simulate a feedback controller that regulates the peak pressure generated by a jet ventilator.

This example develops and simulates a feedback controller that regulates the peak pressure generated by a high-frequency jet ventilator. High-frequency ventilation is a type of mechanical ventilation that is based on respiratory rates that greatly exceed the rate of normal breathing. A common application is in lung injury treatment for infants.
The model consists of a dashboard that can be used to specify mechanical ventilation parameters, a peak pressure controller and the plant that simulates a mechanical ventilator as well as the patient’s lung.
