Nasal Pillow Masks

Nasal pillow masks are a type of CPAP mask characterized by: Small Cushions: They have small cushions or 'pillows' that fit directly into the nostrils, making them lightweight and less intrusive. Ideal for: 1. Individuals who feel claustrophobic in larger masks. 2. Those who prefer a full field of vision for activities like reading or watching TV. 3. Users who wear glasses. 4. People with facial hair that interferes with the seal of other mask types. This design provides comfort and minimal interference, offering a practical solution for various users.

Nasal Masks: Cover the nose only, suitable for those who breathe through their nose during sleep. Ideal for users seeking a balance between comfort and secure fit. Nasal Pillows: Insert directly into nostrils, minimizing facial contact. It is best for users seeking minimalistic design and for those who wear glasses or have facial hair. Full Face Masks: Cover both the nose and mouth, designed for mouth breathers or those with nasal congestion. Suitable for users requiring a higher CPAP pressure setting. Each mask type caters to different user needs based on breathing style, comfort preference, and CPAP pressure requirements.

The recommended replacement frequency for nasal pillow cushions depends on various factors, but here's a general guideline: Recommended Replacement: 1. Typically: Every 3 months. 2. Minimum: Every 6 months. 3. Individual factors:   - Frequency of use: More frequent use means faster wear and tear, needing earlier replacement.   - Cleaning and maintenance: Improper cleaning or harsh soaps can degrade the cushions faster.   - Visible signs of wear: Look for cracks, tears, or loss of softness, indicating immediate replacement.

A nasal CPAP mask with a foam cushion can provide an airtight, comfortable seal for higher-pressure settings.
