Fuzzy Neural Network has been widely used for software in planning, control and decision making. Meanwhile, expert systems have been implemented for medical diagnosis and medical treatment devices including life-critical devices such as medical ventilator. About 87% of ventilator-related deaths and injuries are caused by human error due to inadequate orientation or training process for the operating staff. This paper examined the possibility of modeling medical ventilator with R-POPTVR fuzzy neural network, and provided a flexible software implementation for R-POPTVR architecture.
