Improving mechanical ventilation for patient care through repetitive control

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

Mechanical ventilators sustain life of patients that are unable to breathe (sufficiently) on their own. The aim of this paper is to improve pressure tracking performance of mechanical ventilators for a wide variety of sedated patients. This is achieved by utilizing the repetitive nature of sedated ventilation through repetitive control. A systematic design procedure of a repetitive controller for mechanical ventilation is presented. Thereafter, the controller is implemented in an experimental setup showing superior tracking performance for a variety of patients.
