ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to gas mixing devices for use with breathing circuit assemblies for use with breathing devices, such as respiratory therapy devices and ventilators and to methods for administering gases, such as breathable gases, like nitric oxide, in combination with other gases in a manner which facilitates the establishment of reliable delivery standards for the gases, which facilitates adequate mixing of the gases, and which reduces exposure time of the gases to one another so as to eliminate or minimize the production of toxic byproducts generated from such gas mixtures.
