An apparatus (100) and method (200) of controlling the delivery of therapeutic gas delivered to a patient (1) undergoing positive airway pressure therapy is described. The method includes providing a flow of gas to a patient~s airway at a pressure, obtaining information from the range of 0 to 25 Hz of the frequency domain of the flow, and adjusting the pressure based on the information. The apparatus includes a blower (15) for providing a flow of gas to a patient~s airway at a pressure, a sensor (11) to measure a characteristic of the flow, a controller (9) to obtain information from the range of 0 to 25 Hz of the frequency domain of the characteristic, and a pressure regulator for adjusting the pressure based on the information.

L'invention porte sur un appareil (100) et un procédé (200) de contrôle de distribution d'un gaz thérapeutique à un patient (1) qui suit une thérapie sous pression des voies aériennes positive. Ce procédé consiste à fournir un flux de gaz dans les voies aériennes d'un patient à une certaine pression, à obtenir des informations comprises entre 0 et 25 Hz du domaine de fréquence du flux, et à régler la fréquence en fonction des informations. Cet appareil comprend un ventilateur (15) permettant de fournir un flux de gaz dans les voies aériennes d'un patient à une certaine pression, un détecteur (11) afin de mesurer les caractéristiques de flux, un contrôleur (9) afin d'obtenir des informations comprises entre 0 et 25 Hz du domaine de fréquence de la caractéristique, et un régulateur de pression afin de régler les informations fondées sur la pression.
