Abstract:
A mask system for use between a patient and device to deliver a breathable gas to the patient includes a mouth cushion, a pair of nasal prongs, an elbow, and a headgear assembly. The mouth cushion is structured to sealingly engage around an exterior of a patient's mouth in use, and the pair of nasal prongs are structured to sealingly communicate with nasal passages of a patient's nose in use. The elbow delivers breathable gas to the patient. The headgear assembly maintains the mouth cushion and the nasal prongs in a desired position on the patient's face. The headgear assembly provides a substantially round crown strap that cups the parietal bone and occipital bone of the patient's head in use.

Claim (Index 32):
A mask system for delivery of respiratory therapy to a patient, the mask system comprising:\n a sealing assembly that defines a breathing chamber configured to contemporaneously provide air to both a nose of the patient and a mouth of the patient, the sealing assembly shaped to be positioned entirely below a nasal bridge of the patient and avoid the nasal bridge of the patient when providing air to both the nose and the mouth, the sealing assembly including:\n (i) a nasal cushion structured to seal nares of the patient and provide air from the breathing chamber to the nose of the patient, \n (ii) a mouth cushion structured to seal around a mouth of the patient and provide air from the breathing chamber to the mouth of the patient, the mouth cushion integrally formed with the nasal cushion, \n (iii) upper headgear connections on respective sides of the sealing assembly, and \n (iv) lower headgear connections on the respective sides of the sealing assembly, the lower headgear connections being spaced apart from the upper headgear connections; and \n a headgear assembly structured to maintain the sealing assembly on a face of the patient, the headgear assembly including one or more upper headgear straps structured to connect with the upper headgear connections and one or more lower headgear straps structured to connect with the lower headgear connections.
