Abstract
The introduction of gas/air flow tubes molded/inserted from the top gas/air flow channel to the front area below the nasal area will generate additional air flow to the user's nose below the nasal openings. The gas/air flow tubes will allow users of breathing masks to become accustomed to masks that will be providing gas/air for various purposes. In this instance the mask will be providing comforting simulated breathing for a BIPAP user with sleep apnea, eliminating the feeling of insufficient airflow to the nasal area. This will eliminate user discomfort with current masks that cause discontinued cooperation by patients with the sleeping regimen. By inserting a plug in the bottom of the gas/air flow tube top the mask will convert from a BIPAP mask, to a CPaP mask. This mask can be used in a variety of hospital/healthcare settings where gas/air is used by patients.
