Abstract

A mask for use in respiratory monitoring and / or diagnostics, and method of use thereof, the mask comprising at least one transducer responsive to sound and / or airflow, and a support structure configured to rest on a subject's face and extending outward therefrom to support the transducer at a distance and orientation from the nose and mouth, thereby allowing breathing sound and / or airflow monitoring via the transducer.

Description

[0001] public domain [0002] The present disclosure relates to respiratory diagnostic and monitoring systems, and more particularly, to masks and methods for respiratory monitoring and diagnostics. technical background [0003] There are many clinical conditions, including respiratory failure, respiratory infections, and respiratory weakness associated with narcotic drugs and sedatives, among others, that require close monitoring of respiratory activity. In addition, respiratory disorders are known to interfere with sleep patterns. For example, recurrent episodes of sleep apnea and hypopnea cause intermittent hypoxia, causing awakenings and interruptions in sleep, which in turn lead to inability to sleep deeply and excessive daytime sleepiness. In addition, repeated sleep apnea and intermittent hypoxia may trigger sympathetic nervous system excitation, oxidative stress, and production of inflammatory mediators, which may lead to repetitive nocturnal blood pressure surges and...
