Patient interface

A nasal interface comprising:

• an elongate body comprising a first elongate body, a second elongate body, and a force absorbing bridge:
• the first elongate body configured to extend across at least a portion of a face of a patient when in use, and
• the second elongate body configured to extend across at least a portion of the face of the patient when in use;
• a first nasal prong positioned proximate the first elongate body and a second nasal prong positioned proximate an end of the second elongate body and configured to direct a flow of a gas into at least one nare of the patient when in use;
• a plurality of lumens comprising a first lumen configured to be received within a first end of the first elongate body and a second lumen configured to be received with a first end of the second elongate body, wherein a first end of one of the plurality of lumens is in fluid communication with the at least one of the first and second nasal prongs and a second end of one of the plurality of lumens is configured to be coupled to a gases supply source, wherein the first end of the first elongate body is positioned opposite from the first end of the second elongate body, wherein the plurality of lumens are separate structures from the elongate body;
• the force-absorbing bridge coupled to and extending between the first elongate body and the second elongate body, wherein the force-absorbing bridge is configured to absorb a force applied to the nasal interface and stabilize at least a portion of the nasal interface with respect to at least a portion of the face of the patient;
• and
• one or more hinging regions positioned between an end of the first elongate body and an end of the second elongate body, wherein the one or more hinging regions comprises a first bend positioned between the first nasal prong and the first end of the first elongate body that is closer to the first nasal prong than the second nasal prong and a second bend positioned between the second nasal prong and the first end of the second elongate body that is closer to the second nasal prong than the first nasal prong, wherein the first bend and the second bend are configured to bend when a force is applied to the nasal interface by facial movements and to stabilize a position of the first and second nasal prongs in order to abate displacement of at least one of the first and second nasal prongs out of the at least one nare of the patient.
