Respiratory assembly and methods of using the same

A nasal respiratory assembly comprising:

• a pair of sheets, each sheet defining an opening sized and shaped to fit over a nostril of a patient, with a ferromagnetic ring positioned at an underside of the sheet and circumferentially aligned with the opening, with an upper side of the sheet configured for sealable engagement with the nostril;
• a pair of posts, each post including a magnetic ring positioned at a first end and a receptacle positioned at a second end with a passageway extending from the first to the second ends, the magnetic ring removably attachable to the ferromagnetic ring;
• a connector with a pair of channel openings at a post end, each channel opening sized and shaped to cooperate with one of the receptacles of the post to form a substantially airtight connection therewith, and an inlet at a vent end that is fluid communication with a flexible tubing connected to a fluid source,
• wherein the fluid source is selected from a high flow generator, a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine, a fluid tank, or a humidifier.

• a pair of posts, each post including a magnetic ring positioned at a first end and a ball shaped receptacle positioned at a second end with a passageway extending from the first to the second ends, the magnetic ring removably attachable to the ferromagnetic ring;
• a connector with a pair of socket openings at a post end, each socket opening sized and shaped to receive the ball shaped receptacle in a ball and socket arrangement to form a substantially airtight connection therewith, and an inlet at a vent end that is fluid communication with a flexible tubing connected to a fluid source,
• wherein the fluid source is selected from a high flow generator, a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine, a fluid tank, or a humidifier.
