may accumulate within the device enclosure. Oxygen accumulated in the device
enclosure will create a risk of fire.
Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen should not be used while smoking or in•
the presence of an open flame.
At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen•
concentration will vary, depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing
pattern, mask selection, and the leak rate.This warning applies to most types of
CPAP or bi-level machines.
Some users may experience skin redness, irritation, or discomfort. If this•
happens, discontinue use and contact your healthcare professional.
The patient’s physician should be contacted if the patient experiences the•
following symptoms while using the masks or after removing it: Unusual chest
discomfort, shortness of breath, stomach distension, belching, or sever headache;
drying of the eyes, eye pain, or eye infections; blurred vision. (Consult an
ophthalmologist if symptoms persist.)
At low CPAP or EPAP pressures, the flow through the exhalation port may•
be inadequate to clear all exhaled gas from the tubing. Some rebreathing
may occur.
A minimum of 3 cm H•

O (hPa) must be maintained when using this mask.
This mask should not be used on patients who are uncooperative, obtunded,•
unresponsive, or unable to remove the mask.
This mask is not recommended if the patient is taking a prescription drug that•
may cause vomiting
If an additional exhalation device is added to the patient circuit, you may•
need to adjust the pressure level to compensate for the additional leak of the
exhalation device.
