the device is turned on and functioning properly, new air from the device flushes the exhaled air out through the mask vent holes. However, when the device is not operating, insufficient fresh air will be provided through the mask, and the exhaled air may be rebreathed. Rebreathing of exhaled air for longer than several minutes can, in some circumstances, lead to suffocation. This applies to most models of CPAP or bilevel devices.

Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen.

Oxygen flow must be turned off when the CPAP or bilevel device is not operating, so that unused oxygen does not accumulate within the device enclosure and create a risk of fire.

Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen must not be used while smoking or in the presence of an open flame. Only use oxygen in well ventilated rooms.

At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration varies, depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing pattern, mask, point of application and leak rate. This warning applies to most types of CPAP or bilevel devices.

The technical specifications of the mask are provided for your clinician to check that they are compatible with the CPAP or bilevel device. If used outside specification or if used with incompatible devices, the seal and comfort of the mask may not be effective, optimum therapy may not be achieved, and leak, or variation in the rate of leak, may affect the CPAP or bilevel device function.

Discontinue using this mask if you have ANY adverse reaction to the use of the mask, and consult your physician or sleep therapist.

Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate an existing dental condition. If symptoms occur, consult your physician or dentist.

As with all masks, some rebreathing may occur at low CPAP pressures.

P10 specifications

The ResMed AirFit P10 is an innovative CPAP mask designed for patients requiring effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. It is known for its lightweight design, advanced technology, and high level of comfort, making it a popular choice among users.

One of the key features of the AirFit P10 is its minimalistic design. Weighing only a few ounces, this mask has fewer components compared to traditional CPAP masks. This simplicity not only enhances comfort but also makes it easier for users to assemble and disassemble the mask for cleaning and maintenance.

The P10 utilizes the unique QuietAir vent technology, which diffuses exhaled air gently, reducing noise significantly. This allows for a quieter sleep environment, benefiting both the user and their bed partner. The design of the exhaust port prevents the air from blowing directly onto the partner, ensuring comfort for everyone in the room.

One of the standout characteristics of the AirFit P10 is its soft, dual-wall nasal cushion, which provides a secure seal while maintaining comfort. This cushion adapts to the user’s facial contours, resulting in fewer pressure points and minimizing the risk of skin irritation. Additionally, the lightweight headgear is adjustable, allowing for a personalized fit that contributes to an overall sense of freedom during sleep.

The P10 is compatible with a wide range of CPAP devices and is designed to withstand various pressures, making it versatile for different therapy needs. Furthermore, its ease of use makes it ideal for both new and experienced CPAP users, as it can be quickly fitted and adjusted without cumbersome straps or adjustments.

Another technological advancement in the AirFit P10 is its use of premium materials, which enhances durability and comfort. The mask is made from silicone and other soft fabrics, ensuring that users can wear it for extended periods without discomfort. The design also benefits from state-of-the-art engineering, allowing it to maintain a secure fit throughout the night, regardless of movement during sleep.

In conclusion, the ResMed AirFit P10 is a leading choice in the realm of CPAP masks, providing users with a combination of comfort, technology, and ease of use. Whether you are new to CPAP therapy or looking to upgrade your current mask, the AirFit P10 presents an effective solution for a restful night’s sleep. With features designed to enhance the overall user experience, it underscores ResMed's commitment to delivering quality sleep apnea solutions.
