Zusammenfassung: | An acoustic sensor device including a proximal end connectable to a breathing circuit to receive breathing gases; a distal end connectable to the tracheal tube; a housing, between the proximal end and the distal end, defining a lumen through which the breathing gases flow; an acoustic generator within the housing and positioned to emit acoustic pulses into the lumen; an acoustic receiver within the housing and positioned distally from the acoustic generator; and a first gas property sensor within the housing and positioned proximally from the acoustic receiver, the first gas property comprising at least one of a flow sensor, a pressure sensor, a humidity sensor, or a temperature sensor. |
