Hello, many use nasal cannulae but this depends on your flow rate. I have also heard of a supply of oxygen directly into the windpipe but don't know much about it. I would think your medical team are the best ones to advise you as they know all of your circumstances.

Using Tracheostomy does not often happen in the UK I had to go abroad when I decided this would be my choice.

More commonly they try different masks or cannula even mild sedation when patient compliance is for a short term recovery use.

You can get a mouthpiece for your nebuliser if that's what's your using. I prefer the mask but most nebs these days come with the option of mouthpiece or mask.

Otherwise try Amazon.com they have lots of nebuliser accessories.
