The invention relates to a device (100) and
system for
positive pressure ventilation (PPV) and
continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, the device comprising: a
fresh gas flow inlet (2) arranged to receive a
fresh gas flow from a
fresh gas flow tube (22) connectable thereto; a patient interface end (3) arranged to connect with a patient interface; an outlet (4) having an open end (5); a variable flow CPAP generator (6) comprising a first, second and third connection portion (10, 11, 12), wherein the first connection portion is connected with the fresh gas flow inlet, the second connection portion is connected with the patient interface end, and the third connection portion is connected with the outlet, wherein the generated CPAP level is adjusted by varying the fresh gas flow to the variable flow CPAP generator. The device further comprises an internal leak channel (9) arranged to extend between the fresh gas flow inlet and at least one of the patient interface end and the outlet, so as to create an internal fresh
gas leak flow therebetween, bypassing the first connection portion of the variable flow CPAP generator, which internal fresh
gas leak flow is added to the fresh gas flow provided by the variable flow CPAP generator in PPV mode. A simplified device and
system, respectively, are provided which are easy to use and allow for quick switching between PPV and CPAP therapy without the need to change equipment.
