## Overview | ||
|
||
This LibreRespire ventilator is organized in to two main components. This section | ||
mainly focused on the vBOX, the heart of the LibreRespire system. | ||
|
||
- vBOX | ||
- The ventilator box which houses the main controllers and sensors and can functions | ||
independent of the gas delivery system, vAIR. | ||
|
||
- vAIR | ||
- The ventilator air delivery system is responsible for the delivery of medical | ||
air and oxygen to the vBOX. | ||
|
||
The main emphasis and development effort is focused on the vBOX. The goal is to | ||
develop the vBOX to be couple with any standard gas delivery system such as wall | ||
air, cylinders, compressors. bellows and pistons. | ||
|
||
## Objective | ||
|
||
The main driving concept behind the LibreRespire development is its modular design | ||
which can be tailored to the individual needs and can easily experimented, debugged | ||
and improved. | ||
|
||
## Design | ||
|
||
The vBOX is divided in to 6 modules. | ||
- iMixingUnit | ||
- Responsible for medical air and oxygen mixing to maintain a given FiO<sub>2</sub>. | ||
Currently FiO<sub>2</sub> needs to be set manually. | ||
- Issue tracker. | ||
* [ ] Automate FiO<sub>2</sub> setting. | ||
* [ ] Select appropriate oxygen sensor. | ||
* [ ] Integrate oxygen sensor. | ||
* [ ] Improve physical design. | ||
|
||
- iVenturiUnit | ||
- Responsible for sensing the pressure difference and flow rates in the control | ||
loop during inspiration. Operates on bernoulli's principle and allows the flow | ||
rate to be calculated independent of a separate flow sensor. | ||
- Issue tracker. | ||
* [ ] Selection of a single differential pressure sensor. | ||
* [ ] Improve physical design. | ||
|
||
- iControlUnit | ||
- The main inspiratory output. Houses the emergency valve and the one way valve. | ||
- Issue tracker. | ||
* [ ] Select appropriate rupture disk to act as the emergency valve. | ||
* [ ] Decide on the cost effectiveness of a separate flow sensor. | ||
* [ ] Optimize one way valve. | ||
* [ ] Standardize output port. | ||
|
||
- eControlUnit | ||
- The main port of entry of the expiratory limb. Houses one way valve and the | ||
main flow sensor. | ||
Issue tracker. | ||
* [ ] Select appropriate flow sensor. | ||
|
||
- eVenturiUnit | ||
- Act to control the expiratory flow and calculate the pressure difference and the | ||
expiratory flow rates. | ||
- Issue tracker. | ||
* [ ] Selection of a single differential pressure sensor. | ||
|
||
- ePEEPControl | ||
- Currently controlled by the off the shelf manual PEEP valve. | ||
- Issue tracker. | ||
* [ ] Development of a electronically controlled PEEP valve. | ||
* [ ] Validation of the electronically controlled PEEP valve. | ||

# LibreRespire Electronic module | ||
--- | ||
|
||
This functions as the brain of the LibreRespire, and tailors the output to the | ||
user specified settings based on sensory input. | ||

## Objective | ||
|
||
However this section focuses on development of vAIR, the LibreRespire gas air delivery | ||
system which currently is based on commercially available diaphragm pump. We | ||
intend to build efficient, cost effective and easily sourced driving mechanism for | ||
the vBOX. | ||
