Methods for inhaling gas such as oxygen into a patient can be roughly divided into closed types and open types. The closed type is a system that is also used for anesthesia, etc., and the oxygen gas supply circuit is cut off from the outside air, and it is easy to synchronize breathing by changing the internal pressure of this circuit, and this has already been done. On the other hand, the open type is inhaled by patients with chronic respiratory diseases by wearing the oxygen outlet in their nasal cavity or oral cavity for a long period of time, and oxygen gas is normally supplied continuously regardless of breathing movements. Therefore, since oxygen gas is delivered even when exhaling, the patient may experience respiratory resistance, and the oxygen gas is not utilized during exhalation and is wasted.

In order to solve these problems, the inventors first developed a system that could supply gases such as oxygen in time with breathing. 1) Ja
Developed a breathing-synchronized gas supply device that achieved the Noh performance, and received a special patent application in 1983.
1-1) disclosed in No. 3723. As shown in Fig. 3, this device detects the timing of exhalation and inhalation using a breathing sensor 8 installed in the nasal cannula 4, and the signals are used to control the valves installed in the piping system in the main body 1 of the gas supply device. 7 to control gas supply.

The nasal cannula 4 that supplies oxygen gas to the patient is usually made of a soft resin tube, through which oxygen gas flows, and is often used with a length of 1 to 15 m.The nasal cannula 4 has one end connected to the main body of the device. The other end is inserted into the two nostrils with the other end serving as the oxygen outlet 5.

However, in this method, since the valve 7 is located inside the device main body l, the internal piping of the main body 1, the nasal cannula 4, etc. are interposed between the valve 7 and the oxygen outlet 5, and the internal space of these cannot be ignored. This has the drawback of causing a buffer effect, resulting in a time delay in supplying oxygen gas to the patient side, ie, to the oxygen outlet 5, relative to the operation of the valve 7. Further, while the oxygen gas supply is stopped during exhalation, exhaled gas from the patient's nose mixes with the oxygen gas in the nasal cannula, and the oxygen concentration of the supplied gas decreases. If the above condition continues for a long time (
This has caused problems such as causing patient discomfort and further reducing the therapeutic effect.

The present invention was developed in order to improve the conventional problems of the delayed response of oxygen gas supply to breathing and fluctuations in the gas composition within the nasal cannula. It was discovered that by moving the gas to the side, the responsiveness was improved and the composition of the supplied gas was stabilized.Based on this knowledge, various studies were conducted and the present invention was completed. The purpose is to provide a breathing-synchronized oxygen supply device that does not require any major modifications to the device and can supply gas with an appropriate oxygen concentration without synchronization delay in oxygen gas supply relative to actual breathing. It's about doing.

The present invention provides a respiratory-synchronized oxygen system characterized by having at least one valve in the nasal cannula, and controlling the supply of oxygen gas by opening and closing the cough valve in response to a respiratory signal from a respiratory sensor. It is a supply device.

In this example, in order to improve the ease of attaching the nasal cannula 4 to the patient, the nasal cannula 4 is bifurcated at the distal end, and one valve 6 is therefore installed in front of the bifurcation. It is also possible to install two valves on the patient side of the branched tube of the nasal cannula 4, that is, on both sides of the oxygen outlet 5.

Also, if the nasal cannula is a single tube that does not branch into two, it is only necessary to install one valve near the oxygen outlet 5, and the valve 6 should be located closer to the patient side, that is, closer to the oxygen outlet 5. As the valve 6 opens and closes, it becomes more responsive to breathing and is effective in preventing fluctuations in gas composition, but it is preferable to move it slightly closer to the device to avoid problems such as noise generated when the valve 6 is opened and closed.
However, the effect of the present invention decreases as the position of the valve 6 is further away from the oxygen outlet 5, and therefore, it is desirable that the valve be located within 2 m from the oxygen outlet.

That is, the supply pressure of oxygen gas is usually 0.2 to 0.5 kg.
/- is required, but by shutting off the oxygen gas supply pressure with the valve 7 while the oxygen gas supply is stopped during breathing, an extremely small valve can be used as the valve 6 installed in the nasal cannula. It becomes possible. As a result, the nasal cannula can be made smaller and lighter, which is very advantageous in terms of ease of installation on the patient.

To open and close the valves 6.7, a breathing signal detected by the breathing sensor 8 is sent to a valve opening/closing circuit 10, and the valve opening/closing control B is further performed by this circuit. Signal exchange is performed using code 9.

The respiratory sensor 8 is generally capable of detecting temperature changes near the nasal cavity during exhalation and inhalation, and for this reason, an angry temperature element is usually used. Examples include, but are not limited to, a temperature sensor such as a thermistor 5 thermocouple, or a pyroelectric sensor using a pyroelectric element such as a ceramic.

The types of on-off valves 6 and 7 are mainly solenoid valves or electric valves, but any valve that is small and can be opened and closed efficiently is sufficient, and is not limited to the above two types of valves. 6, a small valve is desirable in order to make it easy to install. However, in general, the solenoid part of a solenoid valve tends to generate heat, and therefore the temperature of the supplied gas may be heated more than necessary. Therefore, the solenoid portion of the nasal cannula valve requires sufficient thermal insulation to prevent an increase in the temperature of the oxygen gas flowing within the nasal cannula channel. FIG. 2 shows part 1 of the solenoid valve 6 for nasal cannula used in the present invention.
An example is shown. The gas passage is blocked by the solenoid 12 and the pole 1), and heat transfer from the solenoid 12 is insulated by the resin layer 14.
