    摘要: Systems and methods for non-invasive ventilation are provided. The systems may include a gas source that provides breathing gases to a patient through one or more of a primary flow path (PFP) and a flushing flow path (FFP). The system may include a control assembly configured to open and restrict gas flow through the PFP. When the PFP is open, a significant portion of the gas flows through the PFP while the remaining gas flows through the FFP. When the PFP is restricted, a significant portion of the gas flows through the FFP. Increased flow through the FFP may have a high velocity (especially relative to the flow through the PFP). Gas delivered through the FFP may be used to flush dead space. One or both flow paths may contribute to inspiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP), expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP), and/or positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP).

    摘要: A respiratory mask includes a housing and a cushion or seal that seals on a user's face in use. An upper portion of the seal that is disposed on a user's nasal bridge in use can roll toward and/or over the outer surface of the housing to form a rolling bridge feature that adjusts to different nose sizes. As the rolling bridge rolls, an apex of the seal moves away from the user's face to adjust to larger nose sizes. The apex does not move downward and can move upward relative to a location of the apex in a neutral position of the seal.
