摘要

This invention is directed to a mouthpiece which directs oxygen into to the mouth of a patient, whether the oxygen is supplied to the patient by a single oxygen supply tube or by conventional nasal cannulae extending from a common oxygen supply tube. In addition, the mouthpiece of the invention provides auxiliary openings through which fingers can be inserted into a patient's mouth so as to allow for manual manipulation of the mouthpiece once it is placed in the mouth.
