Abstract

A bubble continuous positive airway pressure system may include an adjustable flow generator configured to control a flow rate of air to be delivered to a patient. A pressure-regulated delivery system is configured to control a pressure delivered to the patient interface. The delivery system is operatively connected to a pressure control tube. One end of the pressure control tube is submerged in a liquid. A patient interface is configured to transfer pressure from the pressure control tube to the patient's airway.
