    Abstract: An exchanger conduit permits temperature and/or humidity conditioning of a gas for a patient respiratory interface. In an example embodiment, a conduit has a first channel and a second channel where the first channel is configured to conduct an inspiratory gas and the second channel configured to conduct an expiratory gas. An exchanger is positioned along the first channel and the second channel to separate the first channel and the second channel. The exchanger is configured to transfer a component (e.g., temperature or humidity) of the gas of the second channel to the gas of the first channel. In some embodiments, an optional flow resistor may be implemented to permit venting at pressures above atmospheric pressure so as to allow pressure stenting of a patient respiratory system without a substantial direct flow from a flow generator of respiratory treatment apparatus to the patient during patient expiration.

    Abstract: Devices and systems provide methods of controlling breathable gas generation such as for a respiratory treatment and/or for controlling ionization of the gas. In an example, a controller of a respiratory treatment apparatus controls generation of a supply of ionized air. The apparatus may include a flow generator to generate a flow of pressurized breathable gas. The flow generator may be adapted for connection with a respiratory interface. The apparatus may also include an ionizer to ionize the flow of gas. The controller may be coupled with the ionizer and the flow generator and be configured to control the ionizer to programmatically change levels of ionization of the gas. Such ionized gas treatments may be suitable for helping users to sleep or improving respiratory oxygen absorption, and may be for patients with, for example, sleep disordered breathing or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

    Abstract: A mask apparatus for a respiratory treatment can permit delivery of breathable gas to a user. In one example, the mask may employ a frame and cushion to form a seal for both mouth and nose. The frame may be adapted for coupling with a respiratory treatment apparatus so as to permit communication of a pressurized gas from the respiratory treatment apparatus. The cushion, which may be foam, may have a substantially under the nose configuration or over the nose configuration. The mask may have a common plenum chamber for both nose and mouth. The cushion may further define a centrally open lip superior region. The cushion may be adapted to couple with the frame directly or to the frame in conjunction with a cushion support clip. Various features of the cushion may further promote sealing and comfort for the under the nose design.
