Patent number: 11771862Abstract: A patient interface is configured to deliver a pressurized flow of respiratory gas to a patient's airways. The patient interface includes a cradle base configured to cradle the patients nose in use. Two protrusions extend from the cradle base and are configured to be inserted into the patients nares in use. Each of the protrusions have formed therein an opening configured to allow a continuous flow of air therethrough. In addition, a plenum base forms a plenum chamber together with the cradle base. The cradle base is configured so that movement of the cradle base is decoupled from the plenum base.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2020Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: ResMed Pty LtdInventor: Craig David Edwards

Publication number: 20230270965Abstract: A patient interface for delivering breathable gas to a patient includes a nasal prong assembly including a pair of nasal prongs structured to sealingly communicate with nasal passages of a patient's nose in use and headgear to maintain the nasal prong assembly in a desired position on the patient's face. The headgear includes side straps and rigidizers provided to respective side straps. Each rigidizer includes a first end portion that provides a connector structured to engage a respective end of the nasal prong assembly and an inwardly curved protrusion in the form of a cheek support that curves inwardly of the connector. The cheek support is adapted to follow the contour of the patient's cheek and guide a respective end portion of the side strap into engagement with the patient's cheek to provide a stable cheek support.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2023Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Memduh GUNEY, Rupert Christian SCHEINER, David Anthony PIDCOCK, Gerard Michael RUMMERY, Matthew EVES, Craig David EDWARDS, Melanie Lucia CARIOLA, Muditha Pradeep DANTANARAYANA, Michael Fu Pin CHEN, Christopher Scott SKIPPER, Karthikeyan SELVARAJAN, Steven John LUBKE, Bruce David GREGORY, Joel Edward GIBSON, Andrew David CAMERON, Philip Rodney KWOK
