1. A device for delivery of warm therapeutic gas, the device comprising:
a gas warmer assembly to warm a first gas to a temperature in a first temperature range to obtain a warm first gas, wherein the gas warmer assembly comprises:
a heater to warm the first gas to the temperature in the first temperature range; and
a microprocessor to control the heater;
a first delivery unit coupled to the gas warmer assembly to deliver the warm first gas received from the gas warmer assembly to a main treatment chamber;
a second delivery unit configured to receive a therapeutic gas from a gas supply, wherein the second delivery unit comprises:
a first portion that substantially passes through the first delivery unit, wherein the warm first gas warms the therapeutic gas in the first portion to obtain a warm therapeutic gas; and
a second portion configured to deliver the warm therapeutic gas to a sub-treatment chamber;
wherein the main treatment chamber is associated with a first sensor to measure and communicate a main treatment chamber temperature to the microprocessor; and
wherein the sub-treatment chamber is configured to enclose a site for treatment, wherein the main treatment chamber encloses the sub-treatment chamber to retain heat in the sub-treatment chamber, and wherein the sub-treatment chamber is associated with a second sensor to measure and communicate a sub-treatment chamber temperature to the microprocessor.
