Abstract: A method of manufacturing a patient interface for sealed delivery of a flow of air at a continuously positive pressure with respect to ambient air pressure to an entrance to the patient's airways includes collecting anthropometric data of a patient's face. Anticipated considerations are identified from the collected anthropometric data during use of the patient interface. The collected anthropometric data is processed to provide a transformed data set based on the anticipated considerations, the transformed data set corresponding to at least one customised patient interface component. At least one patient interface component is modelled based on the transformed data set.

Abstract: A compression garment for implementing circulatory-related disorder therapy includes a plurality of chambers. In some implementations, the compression garment further includes air supply tubes and tube guides for maintaining the air supply tubes on a predetermined pathway in or on the garment. In some implementations, the compression garment further includes three or more layers forming the macro-chambers and air supply channels for supplying air to the macro-chamber. In some implementations, the compression garment further includes a flexible foot chamber support assembly that allows bending around a periphery of a user's foot. In some implementations, the compression garment further includes chamber valves and a main air supply valve pneumatically connected to a central air supply line and configured to control the supply of pressurized air to at least two of the chamber valves.

Abstract: A compression garment for circulatory-related disorder therapy includes a skin contacting layer, a second layer coupled to the skin contacting layer, and connectors disposed on the second layer. The skin contacting layer and the second layer form one or more macro-chambers. Each macro-chamber is partitioned into a plurality of micro-chambers. Each of the micro-chambers is in direct fluid communication with at least one other of the micro-chambers. Each of the connectors is configured to supply pressurized air directly into at least a corresponding one of the macro-chambers such that the pressurized air is delivered to at least one of the micro-chambers within the macro-chamber. The coupling of the skin contacting layer and the second layer is along a layer attachment profile that defines the macro-chambers and the micro-chambers. At least one of the micro-chambers is linked to another of the micro-chambers by way of a plurality of openings.

The personal entertainment respiratory apparatus may further comprise a controller and a sensory particle dispenser. The controller and sensory particle dispenser may be configured to selectively activate release of a sensory particle from the dispenser into the directed flow of air in response to an entertainment triggering signal.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided to prevent water ingress to a medical device with a housing. Such water ingress may originate, for example, from a connected humidifier. The apparatus consists of an endcap including at least one aperture for selective coupling with a compatible accessory. The end cap is constructed from panels which cooperate to provide an internal fluid passageway for diverting water from the point of ingress to the exterior of the housing.

Abstract: Systems and methods permit generation of a digital scan of a user's face such as for obtaining of a patient respiratory mask, or component(s) thereof, based on the digital scan. The method may include: receiving video data comprising a plurality of video frames of the user's face taken from a plurality of angles relative to the user's face, generating a three-dimensional representation of a surface of the user's face based on the plurality of video frames, receiving scale estimation data associated with the received video data, the scale estimation data indicative of a relative size of the user's face, and scaling the digital three-dimensional representation of the user's face based on the scale estimation data. In some aspects, the scale estimation data may be derived from motion information collected by the same device that collects the scan of the user's face.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided to change the absolute humidity of a flow of air for delivery to an entrance of the airways of a patient, the change being compared to the absolute humidity of ambient air. The apparatus has a reservoir configured to hold a volume of liquid. A heating element creates vapour from the liquid. A chamber is provided to mix the flow of air with the vapour. The apparatus has a body having a first wall structure with a chamber inlet port. A closure element having an air inlet port for pneumatically connecting to a source of the flow of air is secured to the body to provide a sealed gas flow path between the air inlet port and the chamber inlet port, and a liquid trap in the gas flow path.
