• Abstract summary: Mechanical ventilation is one of the most widely used therapies in the ICU. We frame these as a control problem: ventilators must let air in and out of the patient's lungs according to a prescribed trajectory of airway pressure. Our data-driven approach learns to control an invasive ventilator by training on a simulator itself trained on data collected from the ventilator. This method outperforms popular reinforcement learning algorithms and even controls the physical ventilator more accurately and robustly than PID.

• Abstract: Mechanical ventilation is one of the most widely used therapies in the ICU. However, despite broad application from anaesthesia to COVID-related life support, many injurious challenges remain. We frame these as a control problem: ventilators must let air in and out of the patient's lungs according to a prescribed trajectory of airway pressure. Industry-standard controllers, based on the PID method, are neither optimal nor robust. Our data-driven approach learns to control an invasive ventilator by training on a simulator itself trained on data collected from the ventilator. This method outperforms popular reinforcement learning algorithms and even controls the physical ventilator more accurately and robustly than PID. These results underscore how effective data-driven methodologies can be for invasive ventilation and suggest that more general forms of ventilation (e.g., non-invasive, adaptive) may also be amenable.

  We propose the first unsupervised and learning-based method to identify interpretable directions in h-space of pre-trained diffusion models. We employ a shift control module that works on h-space of pre-trained diffusion models to manipulate a sample into a shifted version of itself. By jointly optimizing them, the model will spontaneously discover disentangled and interpretable directions.

  DeepVent is a Conservative Q-Learning (CQL) based offline Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) agent that learns to predict the optimal ventilator parameters for a patient to promote 90 day survival. We find that DeepVent recommends ventilation parameters within safe ranges, as outlined in recent clinical trials. The CQL algorithm offers additional safety by mitigating the overestimation of the value estimates of out-of-distribution states/actions.

  We consider the problem of controlling an invasive mechanical ventilator for pressure-controlled ventilation. A PID controller must let air in and out of a sedated patient's lungs according to a trajectory of airway pressures specified by a clinician. We show that our controllers are able to track target pressure waveforms significantly better than PID controllers.
