ABSTRACT:
A mounting structure for a nasal oxygen catheter elevates and somewhat shortens the tip of the nose of a user to increase the area of the nasal air passages whereby a large quantity of air may enter the nostrils and sweep oxygen into the nostrils with each inhalation of the user. In a preferred embodiment a cup-shaped member snubs the end of the nose and has preferably a plurality of downwardly extending fingers in contact with said catheter.
