Abstract
The present invention is generally related to a device and method for sanitizing a medical instrument with ozone, in particular the invention relates to a system, method and a device for sanitizing a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device. The device has an ozone compartment, an ozone operating system and one or more ozone distribution lines that distribute ozone to a continuous positive airway pressure device. The device may further include a heater adapter unit to connect heating systems in CPAP devices while distributing ozone to sanitize the CPAP device in accordance with the present invention.
Claims20
A continuous positive airway pressure device comprising:
- an ozone device with an ozone operating system;
- one or more distribution lines, wherein said one or more distribution lines distributes ozone from said ozone device to said continuous positive airway pressure device.
A method for disinfecting a continuous positive airway pressure device comprising the steps of:
- producing ozone in an ozone device with an ozone operating system;
- releasing ozone into a continuous positive airway pressure device;
- and,
- migrating ozone through said continuous positive airway pressure device.
A method for disinfecting a continuous positive airway pressure device comprising the steps of:
- producing ozone in an ozone device with an ozone operating system;
- releasing ozone into a continuous positive airway pressure device;
- transferring ozone into a continuous positive airway pressure water reservoir;
- migrating free ozone from said water reservoir to a hose;
- migrating said free ozone from said hose into a face mask in a face mask compartment;
- and,
- removing said ozone from said continuous positive airway pressure device through an exhaust port.
A continuous positive airway pressure device comprising:
- an ozone device with an ozone operating system;
- one or more distribution lines, wherein said one or more distribution lines distributes ozone to said continuous positive airway pressure device;
- a continuous positive airway connector unit, wherein said continuous positive airway pressure unit connects said one or more distribution lines to said continuous positive airways pressure device;
- and,
- a heating adapter unit, wherein said heating adapter unit is attached to said continuous positive airway connector unit and attaches a heating element to heating element receptors on said continuous positive airway pressure device.
A medical instrument comprising:
- an ozone device with an ozone operating system;
- one or more distribution lines, wherein said one or more distribution lines distributes ozone from said ozone device to said medical instrument.
