Nasal CPAP Mask Fitting Guide

The best way to stop a nasal CPAP mask from leaking is to have it fitting perfectly to your unique nose. However, nasal masks are not custom made for your particular nose. The best thing you can do is to choose a mask that suits you the best, and then make small adjustments to optimize the fit. This guide will take you through the appropriate steps to getting a good mask seal.

Step-by-step fitting guide

1. When choosing which CPAP mask to try, you should look carefully at the following, and whether the masks attributes fit your nose:
– the length of the mask cushion – do you have a long or short nose (from the bridge of your nose to the bottom)
– the width of the cushion – at the top (bridge of the nose) and bottom (at the widest point). Remember, it is the inside measurement that is important here. If you have a broad nose, a wider fitting mask may be suitable.
– do you have a flat, or prominent nasal bridge? – the ‘depth’ of the groove for the nasal bridge, or the masks flexibility over this point may be important here
– prominent brow? – if the mask has a forehead support, this can affect how well the mask can be adjusted across the nasal bridge
2. Standing or sitting, adjust the headgear so that the mask feels like it is just sitting in place

ResMed AirMini Travel CPAP Machine Preview

Please Note – The ResMed AirMini machine has since been released with some reviews already. Click here to view them. ResMed AirMini Travel CPAP Machine Preview ResMed; arguably the market leader in CPAP machines, has announced their entry into the travel CPAP machine market with the AirMINI. There are a number of rumours circulating about the design of the machine. Now, it must be said that I cannot speak to the authenticity of the picture shown. But it looks strikingly similar to the descriptions of the machine from those who attended the launch. A few CPAP suppliers from the Sydney area were present, and some leaks (not mask leaks, excuse the pun) about the size, shape and features of the machine have slipped out of some not-so-tightly sealed lips. It is a little secret that ResMed have been looking at entering into the lucrative travel-CPAP market for some time.
