Abstract
Passive heating may be provided to a flexible tube () configured to deliver respiratory gas to a patient. A flexible sheathing body () may be removably attached to the flexible tube so as to surround the flexible tube and extend along the flexible tube. A passive heating element () integrated with the flexible sheathing body may store non-electrical energy and release the stored non-electrical energy as thermal energy to heat the flexible tube.
