Adjustment of CPAP accessories
Ensuring a close fit of the CPAP mask is crucial for a successful and comfortable positive airway pressure therapy.
First of all, when choosing between a full face mask and a nasal mask, a patient must be aware of his breathing habits – one who breathes through the mouth during the night should use a full face mask, whereas for most patients a nasal mask is the best solution.
During treatment, especially when higher pressures are reached, the stability of the mask is essential to prevent air leakage and CPAP masks need to provide a close fit even though tightening might be slightly uncomfortable for the patient.
Curasa's BestFit nasal and full face masks, provide steady support throughout therapy without causing sores and discomfort.
Another CPAP accessory that can significantly improve the CPAP therapy is a Heated Humidifier that can be smoothly integrated with any CPAP machine.
The Heated Humidifier supplies warm moisture to the applied air pressure, making the treatment more comfortable for the patient. An integration of a Heated Humidifier can also reduce side effects related to CPAP therapy.
