Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A nasal cannula system including a nasal cannula for delivery of oxygen to the nostrils of a patient, and a headgear. The oxygen enters the interface on the side of the head and above or below the ear. The system uses flat tubing made of soft material that is comfortable on the face, exerting less pressure on the skin. The system reduces the noise of the oxygen by entering a cannula having an expansion volume before it enters the nostrils. The cannula is secured above and away from the ears by a dual strapped headgear. The dual straps provide greater stability for the interface. The straps attach through a slit on the back of the triangular pad. The straps are able to be adjusted on each side of the head for comfort and stability.
