    摘要: Described herein are passive nasal device having a resistance to exhalation that is greater than the resistance to inhalation. Also described are devices, methods and systems for sensing and measuring intranasal pressure when a subject is wearing a passive nasal respiratory device that is configured to inhibit exhalation more than inhalation. Also described are adapters for nasal devices and methods of using a nasal device adapter. Adapters may be used so that a passive nasal device may be applied indirectly in communication with a subject's nose; in some variations this may allow the passive nasal device to be re-used. Also described herein are nasal devices having a billowing airflow resistor that is configured to have a greater resistance to exhalation than to inhalation. The billowing airflow resistor typically includes a first layer that is adjacent to a second layer; the first layer is flexible and billows opens during inhalation so that the first layer remains separated from the second layer, but remains substantially parallel to the second layer. During exhalation, the first layer collapses back down against the second layer. Additional passive nasal devices, systems and methods of using them are also described.

    摘要翻译: 本文描述了具有大于吸入阻力的呼气阻力的被动鼻装置。 还描述了当受试者佩戴被动鼻呼吸装置时用于感测和测量鼻内压力的装置,方法和系统,该被动鼻呼吸装置被配置为抑制呼吸超过吸入。 还描述了用于鼻装置的适配器和使用鼻装置适配器的方法。 可以使用适配器,使得被动鼻部装置可以间接地应用于与被检者的鼻子通信; 在一些变型中,这可以允许被动鼻腔装置被重新使用。 本文还描述了具有滚动气流电阻器的鼻装置,其构造成具有比吸入更大的呼气阻力。 滚滚气流阻力器通常包括与第二层相邻的第一层; 第一层是柔性的并且在吸入期间波纹打开,使得第一层保持与第二层分离,但保持基本上平行于第二层。 在呼气期间,第一层向下折叠抵靠第二层。 还描述了另外的被动鼻装置,系统和使用它们的方法。
