The artificial ventilation system is a multi-factor system with some high uncertain risks which should be under controlled by medical risk management of hospitals. The key suggestions for reducing the accidence caused by ventilator are recommented: 1 ) to clarify the risk factor of ventilators, 2 ) to set up management group of ventilators with a clinical engineer who is good at management and quality control of medical equipment on ventilators, 3 ) to develop ventilator clinical practice for safety use, 4 ) to explore the effective risk monitoring and early warning system and mechanism on ventilator application.
