A headgear for use with a respiratory mask is described. The headgear can include a continuous and substantially curved elongate member extending, in use, below a user's nose and at least two headgear straps capable of attachment to the ends of the elongate member. A mask attachment on the elongate member is disposed to sit below or on one of the user's nose, mouth, upper lip and an inlet to the mask. The attachment is capable of receiving the mask.

A user interface () with headgear () is disclosed where a flexible conduit () supplies gases to the patient interface and the conduit is connected to the headgear by a sliding connection or support portion (). In one form headgear may include a transverse strap which the conduit is attached to. In other forms various sliding straps constrain the conduit such that forces on the conduit are transferred to the headgear not the interface. Interface vertical height and angular adjustment mechanisms are also disclosed.
