20240123174 · 2024-04-18 ·

A respiratory mask can have a frame supporting a sealing arrangement. Various features of the frame and sealing arrangement can improve comfort and reduce the occurrence of pressure sores. The frame can include cheek supports that have a large surface area configured to spread loads over a greater area of the patient's face and therefore reduce the forces applied to the face and the occurrence of point loads. The seal can have a main body that includes a spring with a silicone skin, wherein the spring applies a substantially constant force to the face and/or nares of the patient.

ENHANCED MEDITATION EXPERIENCE BASED ON BIO-FEEDBACK

Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that provide customized feedback content during a meditation experience. For example, an example process may include obtaining physiological data via one or more sensors, determining that an attentive state based on the physiological data, customizing feedback content based on a user attribute to change the attentive state during the meditation mode, and providing the customized feedback content during the meditation mode after a delay time based on the user attribute.
