SINGLE FLOW AND PRESSURE ACTIVATED AAV

A patient interface includes a seal-forming structure, a shell, and an AAV. The shell and the seal-forming structure form at least a portion of a plenum chamber pressurizable to a therapeutic pressure. The shell includes a first port into the plenum chamber, the first port configured to allow air to...

Zusammenfassung:A patient interface includes a seal-forming structure, a shell, and an AAV. The shell and the seal-forming structure form at least a portion of a plenum chamber pressurizable to a therapeutic pressure. The shell includes a first port into the plenum chamber, the first port configured to allow air to flow between the plenum chamber and ambient. The shell includes a passageway including a second port into the plenum chamber, the passageway configured to communicate with a flow of air at positive pressure. The AAV is provided to the shell and configured to regulate flow through the first port and the second port to (1) provide a flow path for pressurized air when pressure in the plenum chamber is above a predetermined magnitude and (2) provide a breathable flow path when pressure in the plenum chamber is below the predetermined magnitude or not delivered.
