The invention relates to an equine inhalation mask, comprising at least
one valveless combined inhalation and exhalation conduit, into which
inhalant sources comprising respiration control elements and an energy
supply that does not require supply lines are interchangeably integrated.
A filter system is mounted on the outer end of the inhalation and
exhalation conduit facing away from the head of the horse. Said system
and the fact that the mask is effectively sealed when on the head of the
horse prevent any escape of the aerosol into the environment, thus
permitting a reliable inhalation therapy lasting several minutes under
normal respiratory conditions.
