    摘要: A patient interface comprises: a plenum chamber (3200) pressurisable to a therapeutic pressure above ambient air pressure, said plenum chamber including a plenum chamber inlet port sized and structured to receive a flow of air at the therapeutic pressure for breathing by a patient; a seal-forming structure (3100) constructed and arranged to seal with a region of the patient's face surrounding an entrance to the patient's airways, said seal-forming structure being constructed and arranged such that the flow of air at said therapeutic pressure is delivered to an entrance to the patient's nares, and the seal-forming structure being constructed and arranged to maintain said therapeutic pressure in the plenum chamber throughout the patient's respiratory cycle in use; a positioning and stabilising structure configured to hold the seal-forming structure in a therapeutically effective position on the patient's head, the positioning and stabilising structure comprising a tie, and the tie being constructed and arranged so that at least a portion overlies a region of the patient's head superior to an otobasion superior of the patient's head in use; and a vent structure formed in the plenum chamber and configured to allow a continuous flow of gases exhaled by the patient from an interior of the plenum chamber to ambient; wherein the patient interface is configured to leave the patient's mouth uncovered during therapy, wherein the seal-forming structure is shaped and dimensioned such that no portion of the seal-forming structure enters into the patient's nares during use, wherein the seal-forming structure (3100) comprises two lateral support regions (3112.3; 3117), each located at a lateralmost side of the seal-forming structure (3100), and a medial region (3112.1; 3113, 3115) positioned between the lateral support regions, the naris openings passing through the seal-forming structure at the medial region, wherein the lateral support regions (3112.3; 3117) are thicker than the medial region (3112.1; 3113, 3115), and
    wherein the seal-forming structure further comprises two mid-lateral regions (3112.2), each of the mid-lateral regions being positioned laterally outward from and adjacent to the medial region and medially inward from and adjacent to a corresponding one of the lateral support regions, the mid-lateral regions being thicker than the medial region and thinner than the lateral support regions.

    摘要: A process for making headgear for holding a respiratory mask in position on a patient's face, the process comprising the steps of: laminating at least one foam material and at least one fabric material to one another; thermoforming the laminated at least one foam material and at least one fabric material; ultrasonically die cutting the thermoformed and laminated at least one foam material and at least one fabric material into one or more strap portions of the headgear; and joining the one or more strap portions to other headgear strap portions, wherein the thermoformed and ultrasoncially die cut one or more strap portions have rounded edges.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a patient interface (3000) for providing a flow of air at a therapeutic pressure above ambient air pressure to a patient throughout the patient's respiratory cycle, the patient interface comprising a frame (3310) comprising a multi-hole vent (3400) configured to washout exhaled air including exhaled carbon dioxide, the frame comprising a frame connection region (3312), a short tube (4180) having a first end that is permanently connected to the patient interface and a second end having a swivel cuff (4190), the swivel cuff being configured to be connected to an end of an additional gas delivery tube (4178) to receive the flow of air during use, a retaining structure (3242) removably attachable to the frame and having a shape and/or configuration that is complementary to a shape and/or configuration of the frame connection region, a seal-forming structure (3100) arranged to surround an entrance to the airways of the patient so as to facilitate the supply of air at positive pressure to the airways, the seal-forming structure being configured to leave the patient's mouth uncovered in use, and the seal-forming structure being constructed from a silicone material, and a positioning and stabilizing structure (3300), comprising at least one rigidiser arm (3302) and a mechanical clip assembly releasably detachably connecting the rigidiser arm and the frame, and a stretchable strap (3301) comprising a textile material and removably engaged with the rigidiser arm.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a mask system for treating a patient for sleep disordered breathing, comprising a mask adapted to seal against a patient's face thereby forming a breathing cavity for positive pressure treatment. The mask system further comprises headgear to support the mask in position on the patient's face during treatment, the headgear comprising a knitted textile formed of a unitary structure that is fully-fashioned to shape in one unitary piece, without being cut from a sheet of material, wherein the knitted textile has an inner layer and an outer layer, and wherein the inner or outer layer is formed to include a slit or gap and a rigid or semirigid element is inserted through the slit or gap to provide rigidity to the headgear.
