Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for delivering a supply of gases to a patient. The device includes a patient interface and connecting member. The connecting member is preferably a L-shaped swivelled connector that is capable of being fixed into one of two positions, a first position where the connector is freely rotatable within the patient interface, and a second position where an interference between the interface and connector prevents the free rotation of the connector within the patient interface. The present invention further relates to a connector that has outlet means, which includes at least one outlet vent and a funnel, which in use directs and passes a substantial portion gases expired from the patient through the outlet vent or vents.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of controlling the delivery of therapeutic gas delivered to a patient undergoing positive airway pressure therapy is described. The method includes providing a flow of gas to a patient's airway at a pressure, obtaining information from the range of 0 to 25 Hz of the frequency domain of the flow, and adjusting the pressure based on the information. The apparatus includes a blower for providing a flow of gas to a patient's airway at a pressure, a sensor to measure a characteristic of the flow, a controller to obtain information from the range of 0 to 25 Hz of the frequency domain of the characteristic, and a pressure regulator for adjusting the pressure based on the information.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for detecting apnoea that use ultrasonic sound waves are disclosed. The method consists of applying ultrasonic sound waves of varying frequency to a patient's airway and detecting their reflected sound waves. The sound waves are then analysed to determine whether there is a narrowing of the airway. In particular a transmitting ultrasonic transducer and receiving ultrasonic transducer are located on the interior surface of a mask and positioned so as to be directed towards the nares of the patient. A signal is emitted through the transmitting transducer and received at the receiving transducer. The received signal indicates a distance to a reflection or a distance to the narrowing of the upper respiratory tract. In this manner obstructions or narrowing of a patient's airway tract may be identified as reflections which appear at anatomically appropriate distances.

Abstract: A patient interface is described which is reduces the pressure of the mask on the users face. The patient interface has a sealing interface having an inner sealing member and an outer sealing member. The inner and outer sealing members are adapted to seal around the facial contours of a user providing a sealed fluid communication to the user's respiratory tract. The inner and outer sealing members are at least continuously in contact with each other around the portions where the sealing interface contacts the user's facial contours. The inner sealing member may be provided with cut outs to provide additional flexibility to particular areas, such as the nasal bridge, upper lip or cheek regions and may be provided with a contoured edge to better fit the facial contours of a user.

Abstract: An infrared gas analyser. The analyser comprises a sample cell located in a gas flow, a source of infrared radiation of selected wavelengths which is propagated through the sample cell and an infrared detector which receives radiation which has passed through the cell, The radiation incident on the detector provides a measure of the concentration of selected substances in the gas flow due to one of the wavelengths being selected to be absorbed by the gas being measured. One preferred use is as a humidity sensor in a medical respiratory circuit where at least one selected wavelength is a wavelength strongly absorbed by water. Heating means am associated with the sample cell to vaporize any liquid water which may enter it and the cell is provided with internal baffles to reduce deposition or condensation of water on internal surfaces through which infrared radiation must pass. In one embodiment two selected wavelengths are derived from a single source with the second reference wavelength being a wavelength which is not significantly absorbed by the gas being measured and the source is switched between two power supplies to ensure the output of the detector is equal for the two wavelengths when the concentration of the measured gas is zero.In a second embodiment two single wavelength sources are used and their combined outputs passed through the sample cell.
