Description
DEMAND OXYGEN SYSTEM
This invention relates to oxygen delivery systems and methods during supplemental oxygen therapy and, more particularly, to a system for controlling the flow of oxygen to a patient during supplemental oxygen therapy so as to provide oxygen only during the period of patient inhalation.
Prior devices and systems developed for the purpose of conserving oxygen during the delivery of oxygen have generally involved relatively complicated pneumatic and/or electromechanical devices. Simplification of the apparatus for providing intermittent delivery of oxygen in response to a patient's inhalation and exhalation cycles is desirable and has been sought.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a simplified system for providing an intermittent flow of oxygen to a patient during supplemental oxygen therapy.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a system and a method for controlling the flow of oxygen from a source of oxygen to a patient through a nasal cannula where the flow is controlled by valve means that are operated in response to the initiation of exhalation by the patient. The nasal cannula that is an essential feature of the present invention consists of a conventionally shaped nasal cannula face piece having inlet and outlet conduits communicating respectively with two separate zones in the face piece which are separated by a gas-tight partition means in the face piece. The nasal cannula is provided with two nares or tubes that terminate adjacent the patient's nostrils as is conventional, however, each nare communicates with different zones in the face piece. The inlet conduit or tube communicates with the valve means and the source of oxygen.
The outlet conduit communicates,with sensing means capable of sensing the exhalation of the patient at a location remote from the patient and, when exhalation is sensed, the signal produced controls the closing of the valve means to interrupt the flow of oxygen. When the sensing means does not sense patient exhalation, or senses patient inhalation, the valve means remains open or is opened to provide a flow of oxygen to the patient through the inlet conduit and one nare of the face piece.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIGURE 1 is a plan view of the nasal cannula used in the present invention.
FIGURE 2 is a schematic of the system for practicing the method of the present invention.
DETAIIJSD DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Referring to Figure 1, a dual cannula is illustrated having a face piece 2 having a dividing web or partition 3 which divides the cannula face piece 2 into two separate zones 4 and 5 into which nares 6 and 7, respectively, communicate. In the embodiment shown, zone 4 also communicates with sensing tubing 11. Zone 5 communicates with delivery tubing 12. Tubing 11 and 12 can be the same or different outside or inside diameters, both tubes 11 and 12 terminate in a connector 15. Preferably a bolo 1 is slidably received around the tubes 11 and 12 between the connector 15 and the face piece 2 so that adjustment can be provided for the cannula to fit snugly on the patient, minimizing the chance of movement of the nares 6 and 7 from their proper position adjacent the patient's nostrils. The tubes 17 and 18 are provided with a matching connector 16 to fit connector 15. Sense tubing 11 thereby communicates with tubing 17 which terminates in a connector 20 to be attached to pressure sensing unit T, schematically shown in Figure 2.
Likewise delivery tubing 12 communicates with tubing 18 which is connected by means of a connector 21 to the valve means V shown in Figure 2, which is connected to a source of oxygen (02 in Figure 2) . Preferably the pressure sensing unit utilizes a transducer and associated circuitry to detect changes in pressure that will occur at the initiation of exhalation and inhalation by the patient, and to produce an electrical signal capable of actuating the valve means V to open and allow oxygen delivery when the patient is not exhaling. Any sensing unit can be employed that will perform this function.
In operation, the described system of the present invention provides a method for intermittently controlling the flow of oxygen to the patient through a nasal cannula where delivery of the oxygen is restricted to one nare. The method includes providing a source of oxygen which is connected via valve means V to the one delivery nare. The breathing of the patient is sensed at the end of a sensing conduit which communicates with the nare which is not delivering oxygen, the sensing means including signal producing means for providing a control signal to operate the valve means so that changes in the pressure of the gas in the sensing conduit, produced for example by the exhalation of the patient into the sensing nare, will produce or stop the delivery of oxygen from the source of oxygen to the delivery conduit and the delivery nare.
Likewise inhalation by the patient will produce a signal to open the valve means thereby supplying oxygen to the delivery nare. The foregoing method for controlling the flow of oxygen through a nasal cannula depends on the system being provided with the components and functions described and the provision of the nasal cannula described, having a gas-tight partition separating the face piece into two zones where a delivery
nare communicates with one zone and a sensing nare with other zone. With the face piece properly located, the system and method of the present invention are capable of delivering sufficient oxygen to accommodate the range of flow rates normally prescribed for supplemental oxygen therapy.
It will be appreciated that choices of tubing sizes can vary from those shown or suggested and the design of the face piece and nares can deviate from those shown while still providing the gas-tight separation of the face piece into two separate zones. Likewise, the tubing shown from the connector 15, 16 to the connectors
20 and 21 can be separate tubes or multi-channel tubing.
The present invention has been described with respect to its preferred embodiment, the scope of the invention is to be limited only to the scope of the appended claims interpreted in view of the pertinent prior art.
Claims
1. A method of controlling the flow of oxygen to a patient through a nasal cannula having a face piece, two nares and a first and second tube conduit, comprising the steps of: providing a source of oxygen; controlling, by valve means, the flow of oxygen to a first tube conduit of a nasal cannula; sensing the nasal exhalation of a patient by sensor means, said exhalation being sensed at the end of said second tube conduit remote from the face piece of said nasal cannula; supplying oxygen to said cannula through said first tube conduit by the opening of said valve means in response to signals generated by said sensor means, said valve means communicating electrically with said sensor means and cooperating therewith to provide for an intermittent supply of oxygen in response to the exhalation of the patient so that oxygen is supplied when the patient is not exhaling; said cannula face piece with two nares having communication between one nare and one of said tube conduits and the other nare and the other of said tube conduits and said face piece containing a gas tight partition separating the face piece into two separate zones where each zone communicates with one nare so that the step of sensing and the step of supplying do not communicate and thereby interfere with said control and supply.
