Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A continuous high-frequency oscillation breathing device delivers therapy during both inhalation and exhalation in order to assist in clearing secretions from the lungs. A fixed shrouded--venturi patient interface circuit is combined with medicated aerosol to deliver continuous high-frequency oscillation therapy. Fixed open apertures in the patient interface circuit allow ingress and egress of flow, and are calibrated to allow exhalation and prevent stacking of successive breaths.

Why it's free to use
- Filed August 12, 2004 and granted March 13, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 12, 2024.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 12, 2026.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
