NASAL CANNULA FOR HIGH-FLOW VENTILATION

A nasal cannula (1), for high-flow ventilation, includes a basic body (2) with a cavity (20). A tube connection element (6) provides a fluid-communicating connection of a tube (7) with the cavity (20). A first nasal prong and a second nasal prong (3, 4), respectively, each extend away from the basic...

Zusammenfassung:A nasal cannula (1), for high-flow ventilation, includes a basic body (2) with a cavity (20). A tube connection element (6) provides a fluid-communicating connection of a tube (7) with the cavity (20). A first nasal prong and a second nasal prong (3, 4), respectively, each extend away from the basic body (20), for a fluid-communicating connection of each nostril each with the cavity (20). The first nasal prong (3) has a flow resistance different from that of the second nasal prong (4). The nasal cannula (1) can be simply manufactured and simply cleaned and avoids swirling of the breathing gas flow in the basic body (2) or clogging.
