BREATH SAMPLING INTERFACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18608747 titled 'BREATH SAMPLING INTERFACE

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a system for sampling exhaled and/or expired gases from a patient, particularly useful for apnoeic patients receiving high flow respiratory therapy.

  • Gas sampling system for collecting exhaled gases
  • Gas sampling interface with a sampling tip for positioning in the patient's mouth or nose
  • Respiratory gas monitor in fluid communication with the sampling interface
  • Sampling conduit with the sampling tip located at the free end
  • Selective positioning of the sampling tip in the patient's mouth or nose

Potential Applications: 1. Medical settings for monitoring respiratory gases in patients 2. Research laboratories for analyzing exhaled gases 3. Home healthcare for monitoring respiratory conditions

Problems Solved: 1. Efficient sampling of exhaled gases from apnoeic patients 2. Accurate monitoring of respiratory gases during high flow therapy

Benefits: 1. Improved monitoring of respiratory status 2. Enhanced patient care and treatment customization 3. Facilitates research on respiratory conditions

Commercial Applications: The technology can be used in medical devices for respiratory monitoring, research equipment for gas analysis, and home healthcare devices for respiratory condition management.

Prior Art: Readers can explore existing patents related to gas sampling systems, respiratory gas monitors, and high flow respiratory therapy devices for more information on prior art.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in gas sampling technology, respiratory monitoring devices, and high flow respiratory therapy for the latest research in the field.

Questions about Gas Sampling Systems: 1. How does the gas sampling system benefit patients undergoing high flow respiratory therapy? 2. What are the potential challenges in positioning the sampling tip in the patient's mouth or nose?

By providing a comprehensive overview of the gas sampling system described in the patent application, readers can gain insights into its potential applications, benefits, and commercial implications.


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided a respiratory gas delivery and sampling system, a gas sampling system, a gas sampling interface and a gas sampling tip that may be used to sample exhaled and/or expired gases from a patient, particularly from a patient who is apnoeic and/or who is receiving high flow respiratory therapy. The gas sampling system comprises a respiratory gas monitor in fluid communication with the gas sampling interface, which comprises the gas sampling tip of the invention. The gas sampling interface comprises a gas sampling conduit and the gas sampling tip is located at a free end of the conduit. The gas sampling interface may be configured to allow the gas sampling tip to be selectively positioned at or in the mouth or a nare of the patient's nose.
