Medical Ventilator


Medical Ventilator is a machine that mechanically moves air in and out of the lungs. It always be used to provide breathe for a patient who is physically unable to breathe, or breathing insufficiently. This is because this machine is able to help raise the oxygen level for these patients, and also to improve the ventilation, improve the ventilation function and reduce power consumption and save breath cardiac reserve capacity. My research is as follows:
To begin with, Medical Ventilator can deal with some tissue or systems’ problem, like the muscle tissue or respiratory system. The Respiratory system is a biological system consisting of specific organs and structures used for the process of respiration. It has two functions: breathing, and exchanges gases. The respiratory system aids in breathing, and air is inhaled through the nasal and oral cavities. It moves through the pharynx, larynx, trachea and bronchi into the lungs. Then air is exhaled, flowing back through the same pathway. What’s more, Inside the lungs, oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide waste through the process called external respiration. This respiratory process takes place through the alveoli. Oxygen from inhaled air diffuses from the alveoli into …show more content…

Also, as we know, there are some risks in using the Medical Ventilator, and use Medical Ventilator for the patients who just finish the surgery, may cause infection and may aggravate their illness. However, the Medical Ventilator has played an important role in supply air to patients in order to help them breathe. Therefore, Should physicians give the Medical Ventilator to patients would be a worth pondering
