The mask’s low-profile design and short tube enhance stability and flexibility, improving the sleep therapy experience.

Silicone Cushion with AdaptiSeal

The ResMed AirFit F40 Full Face CPAP Mask with Headgear features AdaptiSeal™ technology, with a silicone cushion designed to conform to the contours of your face. This ensures a secure and comfortable fit throughout the night, even as you move. The silicone cushion is crafted for durability and flexibility, aiming to maintain a consistent seal and provide comfort, reducing potential air leaks for the effectiveness of CPAP therapy.

Soft-Touch Headgear

The ResMed AirFit F40 Full Face CPAP Mask with Headgear introduces an innovative approach to comfort and adjustability in sleep apnea treatment. Designed with a focus on simplicity and effectiveness, the mask features two upper and two lower adjustment points. This straightforward design simplifies the fitting process, ensuring ease of use right from the start. The mask comes with a system that includes the frame, full face cushion, and headgear, designed to fit a wide range of facial shapes and sizes. The headgear itself is designed with user comfort in mind, featuring soft-touch materials and minimal adjustment points to reduce the complexity often associated with CPAP therapy.

Quick-Release Elbow

The ResMed AirFit F40 Full Face CPAP Mask features a quick-release elbow for easy connection and disconnection to therapy, especially beneficial during the night. This design simplifies mask disassembly and reassembly, offering flexibility and ease. It meets your need for swift detachment without the need to completely remove the mask, facilitating uninterrupted sleep and therapy. The mask can be easily disassembled for maintenance or cleaning by undoing the upper headgear straps, detaching the elbow from the vent ring, and removing the cushion stud from the frame. To reassemble the mask, just insert the cushion stud back into the frame, securing the vent ring with the cushion, and reconnecting the elbow to the vent ring.

Magnetic Clips

The ResMed AirFit F40 Full Face CPAP Mask features innovative magnetic clips for quick and easy handling. These clips make attaching and detaching the mask straightforward, even in low light or during the night. The magnetic clips, along with the mask’s few adjustment points, make the process of wearing and removing the mask simpler, improving the overall user experience by focusing on ease and comfort. Please refer to the ResMed AirFit F40 guide or contact ResMed for detailed instructions and safety information about using magnetic clips with your CPAP mask.

QuietAir Vent Technology

The ResMed AirFit F40 Full Face CPAP Mask incorporates QuietAir™ diffused venting technology to significantly reduce noise, creating a quieter and more comfortable sleep environment for you and your family. This innovative design is integrated directly into the mask’s cushion, dispersing air gently and quietly at a sound power level of just 20 dBA. This ensures that sleep remains uninterrupted by the annoying sounds.

Flexible Frame and Cushion

The mask’s frame is designed for full flexibility, adapting smoothly to your movements throughout the night to allow sleeping in your preferred position without compromising the mask’s effectiveness or comfort. The soft touch and flexibility ensure it rests gently on your face, greatly reducing pressure marks or discomfort. Its low-profile design improves comfort during sleep and offers flexibility for your bedtime routine. Engaging in activities like reading a book or watching TV is easy with this mask’s design, which supports wearing glasses and lets you partake in your usual activities without obstruction, ensuring a comfortable and practical experience.

 

ResMed’s Updated Contraindications and Warnings for Magnetic Masks

Updated Contraindications¹

Masks with magnetic components are contraindicated for use by patients where they, or anyone in close physical contact while using the mask, have the following:

Active medical implants that interact with magnets (i.e., pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD), neurostimulators, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunts, insulin/infusion pumps)

Metallic implants/objects containing ferromagnetic material (i.e., aneurysm clips/flow disruption devices, embolic coils, stents, valves, electrodes, implants to restore hearing or balance with implanted magnets, ocular implants, metallic splinters in the eye)

Updated Warning²

Keep the mask magnets at a safe distance of at least 6 inches (150 mm) away from implants or medical devices that may be adversely affected by magnetic interference. This warning applies to you or anyone in close physical contact with your mask. The magnets are in the frame and lower headgear clips, with a magnetic field strength of up to 400mT. When worn, they connect to secure the mask but may inadvertently detach while asleep.

Implants/medical devices, including those listed within contraindications, may be adversely affected if they change function under external magnetic fields or contain ferromagnetic materials that attract/repel to magnetic fields (some metallic implants, e.g., contact lenses with metal, dental implants, metallic cranial plates, screws, burr hole covers, and bone substitute devices). Consult your physician and manufacturer of your implant / other medical device for information on the potential adverse effects of magnetic fields.

Note, not all models or variants of medical devices listed in the contraindications are affected by external magnetic fields. If you are not sure whether an implant or medical device falls under the contraindications, or you require additional information on the potential adverse effects of magnetic fields for your particular implant or medical device, please contact your physician/doctor.

Fitting Guide:

1. Place the cushion under your nose and ensure it sits comfortably on your face.  With the ResMed logo on the headgear facing up, pull the headgear over your head.
2. Bring the lower headgear straps under your ears and attach the magnetic headgear slips to the frame.
3. Undo fastening tabs on the upper headgear straps and pull evenly.  Repeat with the lower headgear straps.
4. If the headgear is too close to your ears, adjust the headgear strap on the crown of the head..
5. Connect the air tubing from your CPAP device to the elbow.
6. Reattach the elbow to the frame.  The mask is now ready to use.
