Siesta Nasal Mask

Thank you for choosing REACT HEALTH’s Siesta Nasal Mask.
The Siesta Nasal Mask is designed to minimize contact with your face, thus ensuring that you feel comfortable during therapy. This user manual provides you with the information you need for the correct use of your mask.
The Mask is not made with natural rubber latex.

Intended Use

The Siesta Nasal Mask channels airflow non-invasively to the patient from a positive airway pressure device such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bi-level system.
The Siesta Nasal Mask is:

• To be used by adult patients (> 66 lb / 30 kg) for whom positive airway pressure therapy has been prescribed.
• Intended for single-patient reuse.
  CAUTION: In the US, Federal law restricts the sale of this device by or on the order of a physician.

Before Using the Mask

WARNINGS

• The vent holes must be kept clear.

• This mask should only be used with CPAP or bi-level devices recommended by a physician or respiratory therapist.

• The mask should not be used unless the device is turned on. Once the mask is fitted, ensure the device is blowing air.
  Explanation: CPAP and bi-level devices are intended to be used with special masks (or connectors) which have vent holes to allow continuous flow of air out of the mask. When 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 bi-level devices.

• This mask is made with silicone parts. Please do not use if thepatient is allergic or sensitive to silicone.

• This mask should not be used on patients who are uncooperative, unresponsive, or unable to remove the mask.

• Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen.

• Oxygen flow must be turned off when the CPAP or bi-level device is  not in operation, so that unused oxygen does not accumulate in the device enclosure and create a fire hazard.

• 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 flow rate of supplemental oxygen, the inhaled oxygen concentration varies, depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing pattern, mask, point of application and leak rate.

• The technical specifications of the mask are provided for your clinician to check if it is compatible with the flow generator. If it is used beyond technical specifications or used with incompatible devices, the seal and comfort of the mask may not be effective, and optimum therapy may not be achieved. Leak or variation in the rate of leak, may affect the function of the CPAP or bi-level device.

• Stop using the Siesta Nasal Mask and consult your physician or sleep therapist, if you have ANY adverse reaction to the use of the mask.

• Refer to your CPAP or bi-level device manual for details on settings and operational information.

• Remove all packaging before using the mask.

• mages shown here are indicative only. If there is inconsistency between the image and actual product, the actual product shall govern.
