ResMed Quattro FX

Description

Additional Features:

•  The dual wall cushion provides a comfortable, high effective seal and features a contoured membrane around the nasal bridge that reduces soreness, irritation and discomfort patients commonly feel in this area.
• The innovative spring frame eliminates the need for a forehead support and features fewer points of adjustment, making fitting fast and easy.
• Set it and forget it headgear lets patients retain the desired fitting.

Fitting Guide:

1. Prior to fitting the mask, remove the orange spring frame support from the rear of your mask and retain for future use.
2. With both lower headgear clips released, position the cushion at an angle on the nasal bridge.
3. Keeping the upper position of the mask in place, swing the lower half of the mask down against your face.
4. Hold the mask firmly against your face and pull the headgear over your head.
5. Bringing the lower straps below the ears, clip the headgear into the lower part of the spring frame.
6. Unfasten the Velcro, pull the upper headgear straps evenly until they are comfortable and firm, and reattach the Velcro.
7. Repeat step 6 with the lower headgear straps.
8. Connect one end of the air tubing to the swivel and the other end to the airflow device. Turn on the airflow device.

Tips:

1. Ensure the headgear is correctly positioned on the head.
2. Ensure the mask sits mid-bridge on the nose and does not encroach on the eyes.

Cleaning tips (outlined by the American Thoracic Society April 2020):

• Daily: clean the full face mask cushion daily with a damp cloth and mild detergent, may use mask wipes
• Weekly: clean full mask system (including headgear) with warm water and mild soap (dish soap). Rinse with water and then air dry away from direct sunlight.

Recommended replacement every 6 months.
