Lung protective ventilation control

1. A method of ventilator control, the method comprising:

receiving machine data from a mechanical ventilator;

detecting one or more clinical events based on the machine data, the one or more clinical events being distinct from the machine data itself; and

evaluating the machine data corresponding to the one or more clinical events detected for compliance with lung protective ventilation (LPV) recommendations; and

at least one of producing a visual indication or a graphical display of the evaluated compliance with the LPV recommendations and controlling the mechanical ventilator based on the evaluated compliance with the LPV recommendations.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the machine data comprises one or more streaming time series of machine data provided by the mechanical ventilator.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more clinical events identified in the one or more streaming time series of machine data comprise at least one of a provision of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) therapy, a derecruitment event, and an initiation of a recruitment maneuver.

4. The method of claim 3 wherein the initiation of the recruitment maneuver is detected based upon streaming analytics of a streaming time series of a signal indicative of a manual initiation of the recruitment maneuver.

5. The method of claim 3 wherein the initiation of the recruitment maneuver is detected based upon streaming analytics of a streaming time series of at least one signal indicative of a pressure within a breathing circuit of the mechanical ventilator.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the lung protective ventilation recommendations comprise at least detection of the positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) therapy after each detected recruitment maneuver.

7. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

receiving a predicted body weight (PBW) of a patient; and

calculating an LPV tidal volume range based upon the PBW;

wherein the one or more streaming time series of machine data comprise a time series indicative of tidal volume delivered to the patient and the lung protective ventilation recommendations comprise detection of the tidal volume within the calculated LPV tidal volume range.

8. The method of claim 2 , further comprising receiving clinical case scheduling data and wherein detecting the one or more clinical events further comprises conducting streaming analytics to apply the clinical case scheduling data to the one or more streaming time series of machine data from the mechanical ventilator to identify a start and a conclusion for one or more detected clinical cases.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more clinical events detected in the machine data comprises an induction phase, a maintenance phase, and an emergence phase.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the one or more clinical events in the machine data comprises conducting streaming analytics on one or more streaming time series of machine data from the mechanical ventilator to apply a plurality of case identification rules to the one or more streaming time series of machine data to identify the one or more clinical events in the one or more streaming time series of machine data.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the lung protective ventilation recommendations are embodied in at least one LPV rule, and further comprising applying the at least one LPV rule to the machine data and the detected one or more clinical events to evaluate compliance with the lung protective ventilation recommendations.

12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving physiological data of a patient;

analyzing the physiological data of the patient to evaluate a health of the patient; and

evaluating an effectiveness of compliance with the LPV recommendations based upon the evaluated health of the patient.

13. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

aggregating evaluations of compliance with the LPV recommendations; and

visually reporting the aggregated compliance with the LPV recommendations from the plurality of detected clinical cases.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the aggregated evaluations of compliance are sorted based upon each of a plurality of LPV recommendation rules, and visually reporting the aggregated compliance.

15. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:

associating each of the one or more clinical events to a respective LPV recommendation rule; and

providing an automated communication with a recommended control to enhance compliance with the LPV recommendations.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the automated communication is an automated control instruction to the mechanical ventilator to perform an action to comply with the respective LPV recommendation rule.

17. A system for lung protective ventilation, the system comprising:

one or more processors configured to:

receive streaming time series machine data and preprocess the streaming time series machine data;

receive the streaming time series machine data and identify one or more clinical events based on the streaming time series machine data, the one or more clinical events being identified by analyzing the streaming time series machine data, wherein the streaming analytics module is configured to evaluate the streaming time series machine data and the identified one or more clinical events for compliance with lung protective ventilation (LPV) recommendations; and

a graphical display configured to present the evaluation of the compliance with the LPV recommendations.

18. The system of claim 17 , further comprising a mechanical ventilator comprising an anesthesia delivery machine and communicatively connected to the data ingestion module, the mechanical ventilator provides the streaming time series machine data to the data ingestion module.

19. The system of claim 18 , further comprising at least one computer memory comprising a data lake, wherein the streaming time series machine data is stored in the at least one computer memory.

20. The system of claim 18 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to, upon detection of a clinical event of the one or more clinical events detected in the streaming time series machine data, produce an automated communication indicative of a mechanical ventilator control in compliance with the LPV recommendations.
