Abstract
A respiratory gas measurement system is described. In one embodiment, the respiratory gas measurement system includes a chamber and an adhesive pad. The chamber is configured to collect a respiratory gas. The adhesive pad includes a substrate. At least a portion of a first surface of the substrate is covered with adhesive. The adhesive on the first surface of the substrate attaches the adhesive pad to a first surface of the chamber. The adhesive pad enables the chamber to attach to a surface of another nasal cannula.
Claims19
A respiratory gas measurement system, the respiratory gas measurement system comprising:
- a chamber configured to collect a respiratory gas;
- an adhesive pad, the adhesive pad comprising a substrate, wherein the substrate comprises a first surface and a second surface and is in a shape of a club hammer comprising a head portion and a handle portion, and wherein the head portion of the first surface of the substrate is covered with adhesive and the handle portion of the first surface of the substrate is free of adhesive, and wherein both the head portion and the handle portion of the second surface of the substrate is covered with adhesive;
- and
- wherein the adhesive on the first surface of the substrate attaches the adhesive pad to a first surface of the chamber.
An attachable nasal cannula, the attachable nasal cannula comprising:
- a chamber configured to collect a respiratory gas;
- an adhesive pad, the adhesive pad comprising a substrate, wherein the substrate comprises a first surface and a second surface and is in a shape of a club hammer comprising a head portion and a handle portion, and wherein the head portion of the first surface of the substrate is covered with adhesive and the handle portion of the first surface of the substrate is free of adhesive, and wherein both the head portion and the handle portion of the second surface of the substrate is covered with adhesive;
- and
- wherein the adhesive on the first surface of the substrate attaches the adhesive pad to a first surface of the chamber.
A method for measuring respiratory gas, comprising:
- attaching an adhesive pad to a chamber configured to collect a respiratory gas, the adhesive pad comprising a substrate, wherein the substrate comprises a first surface and a second surface and is in a shape of a club hammer comprising a head portion and a handle portion, and wherein the head portion of the first surface of the substrate is covered with adhesive and the handle portion of the first surface of the substrate is free of adhesive, and wherein both the head portion and the handle portion of the second surface of the substrate is covered with adhesive;
- wherein the adhesive on the first surface of the substrate attaches the adhesive pad to a first surface of the chamber;
