VARIABLE FLOW VENT ASSEMBLY FOR A CONDUIT MASK

The technology relates to a variable flow vent assembly for a conduit mask configured to deliver a flow of breathable gas at a positive pressure to an airway entrance of a patient and allow a flow of exhaled gas from the airway of the patient to exit the vent assembly to ambient. The variable flow v...

Zusammenfassung:	The technology relates to a variable flow vent assembly for a conduit mask configured to deliver a flow of breathable gas at a positive pressure to an airway entrance of a patient and allow a flow of exhaled gas from the airway of the patient to exit the vent assembly to ambient. The variable flow vent assembly is further configured to include a valve, wherein the valve is arranged to allow for the regulation of the flow of breathable gas to the patient and the regulation of the vent flow rate of exhaled gas leaving the vent assembly to ambient. By changing certain characteristics of the valve and by tuning the valve through variants in design, the resultant vent flow rate for a given air pressure can be altered in order to obtain the best treatment outcome for the patients individual requirements.
