CA 2742199

The invention relates to a system for detecting respiratory muscle activity of a patient (1) receiving assisted breathing, which is connected to an assistance device (2) by a pneumatic circuit (3). Said system is characterised in that it comprises: a means (4, 5) for acquiring air pressure and flow signals in the pneumatic circuit (3), sent to a means (6) for continuously estimating the theoretical air pressure expected in the pneumatic circuit in absence of respiratory muscle activity from the patient; and a means (7) for comparing estimated and actual theoretical pressures in order to continuously detect a pressure differential showing respiratory muscle activity in the patient.

Système de détection de l'activité musculaire respiratoire d'un patient (1) sous assistance respiratoire, raccordé à un appareil d'assistance (2) par un circuit pneumatique (3). Ce système est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte : des moyens (4, 5) d'acquisition de signaux de pression et de débit de l'air dans le circuit pneumatique (3), à destination de moyens (6) d'estimation en continu de la pression théorique de l'air attendue dans le circuit pneumatique en l'absence d'activité musculaire respiratoire du patient; et des moyens (7) de comparaison des pressions théoriques estimées et mesurées pour détecter en continu une différence de pression représentative d'une activité musculaire respiratoire du patient.
