A tubing assembly for use with a patient interface device includes a manifold portion structured to be coupled to a conduit carrying a flow of breathing gas and a number of tubular portions. Each tubular portion extends from the manifold portion to a distal end which is structured to be coupled to the patient interface device. Each tubular portion is structured to communicate the flow of breathing gas from the manifold portion to the patient interface device. Each tubular portion comprises an adjustment element which provides for a characteristic of the tubular portion to be selectively varied.

A valve arrangement includes a first member formed from a pliable material, the first member having at least one aperture defined therethrough. The valve arrangement also includes a second member coupled to the first member, the second member formed from another pliable material. The second member is movable from: a first position in which the second member is sealingly engaged about a periphery of the at least one aperture, thus preventing passage of a fluid through the aperture, and a second position in which at least a portion of the second member is spaced from the periphery of the aperture such that the fluid is able to pass through the aperture.

A cushion member () is for a patient interface device. The cushion member includes a body portion () having a first end () and a second end () disposed opposite the first end, the body portion defining a passage () therethrough, and a support portion () extending from the second end into the passage. The support portion includes a first portion () and a second portion () disposed on or in the first portion. The support portion is movable from a first configuration to a second configuration responsive to a change in environment.

A method of identifying a particular mask for a patient for use in delivering a flow of breathing gas to the patient includes capturing with a visual presentation and interaction component a plurality of images of the patient; receiving with the visual presentation and interaction component a number of responses from the patient to questions presented to the patient, eliminating one or more masks from a pool of potential masks for the patent based on at least one of the responses, utilizing at least some images of the plurality of images to determine the particular mask for the patient from the pool of potential masks, and identifying the particular mask to the patient.

A method of determining facial metrics of a patient includes: capturing a first image of the patient with an image capturing device positioned in a first known position with the assistance of a positioning device, capturing a second image of the patient with the image capturing device positioned in a second known position different that the first known position with the assistance of the positioning device, and determining facial metrics of the patient by analyzing the first image and the second image.

A cushion member () for a mask structured to be worn on a face of a user. The cushion member includes a cushion portion () having a sealing portion () and a body portion () extending from the sealing portion, the sealing portion being structured to engage the face of the user; and at least one mesh member () embedded in at least one of the sealing portion and the body portion.

A method of obtaining a 3D scan of a patient's face includes receiving a request for a 3D scanner from the patient, sending the 3D scanner to the patient, receiving the 3D scan of the patient's face obtained from the 3D scanner from the patient, receiving the 3D scanner from the patient, and using the 3D scan of the patient's face to make, select, or customize a patient interface device for the patient.
