A noise reduction structure for a ventilation treatment device and the ventilation treatment device are provided. The noise reduction structure comprises a first micropore plate; the first micropore plate has a first plate surface and a second plate surface which are opposite to each other, the first plate surface is used for forming a first chamber; the second plate surface is used for forming an air passage such that air in the air passage flows along the second plate surface; the first micropore plate has a plurality of first micro-vias through which the first chamber communicates with the air passage. The noise reduction structure is wide in noise reduction frequency band, may effectively reduce aerodynamic noise in the air passage, and improves the satisfaction degree of a patient using the ventilation treatment device.

Disclosed is a respiratory interface device (1) and components thereof. The respiratory interface device (1) comprises a body (2), a frame (3), and an inlet conduit (4). The frame has a front wall (10a), side walls (10b), and side arms (12), and a support platform (11) extending rearwardly from the front wall (10a). An inlet opening (13) is defined in the support platform (11). The body (2) forms a chamber with the support platform (11) and comprises at least one nasal outlet (5), a base opening (7), and at least one further opening (6), through which the support platform (11) extends. The inlet conduit (4) comprises a connector (18) that clamps the body (2) and the support platform (11) together.

A patient interface comprises a seal-forming structure including a textile membrane and a support structure to support the textile membrane. The seal-forming structure may have a varying construction in order to accommodate different regions and the varying contours of the patient's face to ensure a robust and comfortable seal. An air impermeable layer of the textile membrane may have a thickness that varies in different portions of the textile membrane and/or different regions of the cushion assembly. Further, the seal-forming structure may include an underlying cushion, and an arrangement of the textile membrane and the underlying cushion and/or the configuration of the underlying cushion may vary in different regions of the cushion assembly to optimize patient comfort and the effectiveness of the seal in different regions of the patient's face.

A device for irrigation of an oral cavity in a patient includes a suction element configured to be disposed in the oral cavity and configured to suction a fluid out of the oral cavity. The suction element also has one or more irrigation outlets configured to irrigate the oral cavity with the fluid. A suction line is fluidly coupled with the suction element and is configured to be fluidly coupled with a vacuum source. An irrigation line is fluidly coupled with the one or more irrigation outlets and is fluidly coupled with a source of the fluid.

A face mask (also called full face) for respiratory therapy, in particular for non-invasive mechanical ventilation, has a low value of CO.sub.2 rebreathing. The mask includes a shaped shell to cover at least the mouth, the nose and the eyes of a patient when the mask is worn, and includes, on said shaped shell an inlet fitting for the connection to a pipe through which a ventilation apparatus supplies the mask with a mixture of air and oxygen, and an outlet fitting, separate from said inlet fitting, for the discharge of air exhaled by the patient. With this arrangement, the mask allows drastically reducing the phenomenon of carbon dioxide rebreathing, which is very harmful for the patient subjected to ventilation.

A flow of gases in a respiratory therapy system can be conditioned to achieve more consistent output from sensors configured to sense a characteristic of the flow. The flow can be mixed by imparting a tangential, rotary, helical, or swirling motion to the flow of gases. The mixing can occur upstream of the sensors. The flow can be segregated into smaller compartments to reduce turbulence in a region of the sensors.

An attachment for a tracheal cannula, the attachment surrounding a cavity, the attachment being open both in a coupling area of the attachment as well as in an orifice area of the attachment, differing in location from the coupling area, for providing an access to the cavity, the attachment having in the coupling area a latching formation, which is designed for the releasable connection to a mating latching formation of the tracheal cannula, the coupling area surrounding a section of the cavity, the section of the cavity surrounded by the coupling area being centrally penetrated by a virtual coupling axis, the coupling axis defining an axial direction along its path, defining a plurality of radial directions orthogonally to its path and defining a circumferential direction running around it, the coupling area having at least one support section, on which the latching formation and a force application area are situated in such a way that by exerting an actuating force on the force application area in the radial direction toward the coupling axis, the support section is displaceable between two positions of different radial distance of the latching formation situated on the support section from the coupling axis; the force application area and the latching formation displaceable by an exertion of force on the force application area of the same support section are situated along the coupling axis at an axial distance from each other.

A blower of a CPAP device is housed inside a main body case of a CPAP device. The blower is roughly divided into a fan unit housing a fan therein, and a delivery tube, through which air sent from the fan passes. In the main body case, a first support member, a second support member, and a third support member are interposed between the main body case and the fan unit to support the fan unit. When viewed from a rotation axis of the fan, the first support member and the second support member are disposed to pinch the blower on the side of a connection point between the fan unit and the delivery tube relative to the rotation axis, and the third support member is located on the opposite side to the connection point between the fan unit and the delivery tube relative to the rotation axis.

A medical tube is provided which can reduce the acoustic power level therein when air is supplied through the tube. The medical tube includes: a reference side bellows tube portion configured to be a flexible bellows-like tube including a plurality of reference rings in series in an axial direction, the reference rings each extending annularly or helically to form a ring; and a deformed side tube portion configured to be a tube shaped differently from the reference side bellows tube portion. Here, a plurality of the reference side bellows tube portions and a plurality of the deformed side tube portions are alternately arranged in the axial direction. At least one of the reference side bellows tube portions has an axial length less than 112 mm.

An endotracheal safety device comprising an endotracheal tube having a proximal end and a distal end, the endotracheal tube defining a lumen between the proximal end and the distal end, an endotracheal sleeve assembly having a proximal end and a distal end, the endotracheal sleeve assembly defining a lumen between the proximal end and the distal end, the endotracheal sleeve assembly configured to be movable over the endotracheal tube, and an adapter having a proximal end and a distal end, the distal end of the adapter configured to be received by the proximal end of the endotracheal sleeve assembly.
