Abstract: The invention relates to a device for performing respiratory training, in particular altitude training, comprising a mouthpiece (1) through which a person can exhale respiratory gas into a volume (2, 3a, 7) or can inhale it out of the volume (2, 3a, 7), wherein this volume (2, 3a, 7) is formed at least in part by a container (2) which is adjustable in terms of its volume and which is connected to the mouthpiece, wherein the volume (2, 3a, 7) adjoins one side of at least one gas-permeable membrane (4), to the other side of which at least one gas exchange chamber (3b) is connected, through which a fluid provided for the gas exchange, in particular CO2 and/or O2 gas exchange, can actively flow.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and a process for mass- and/or energy-transfer between two media, in particular between blood and a gas/gas mixture, having a chamber (1) through which a first medium, in particular blood, flows and in which a bundle of mass- and/or energy-permeable hollow fibers through which the second medium can flow and around which the first medium can flow is arranged transverse to the flow direction of the first medium, in which the chamber (1) is configured as an elastic shell (3) at least in a region which completely surrounds the bundle, where a rigid housing (6) is arranged around the elastic shell (3) and the inner wall of the housing contacts the shell (3) in a plurality of first regions (9) and the inner wall of the housing is not in contact with and is in particular at a spacing from the shell (3) in at least one second region (10), preferably a plurality of second regions (10) in the direction of the extension of the hollow fibers, where the one hollow space or at least on

Abstract: A device is provided for transferring mass and/or exchanging energy between two media, particularly between blood and a gas/gas mixture. The device includes a chamber (2), through which the first medium flows and inside which at least one mass-permeable and/or energy-permeable hollow fiber (5), preferably a plurality of mass-permeable and/or energy-permeable hollow fibers (5), is/ are arranged. The second medium can flow through the at least one hollow fiber (5), while the first medium can flow therearound. At least one pumping element (5), which allows the first medium to be displaced from the chamber (2) and/or to be sucked into the chamber (2), is disposed in the chamber (2) of the device.
