Nasal Mask Accessory
USER’S GUIDE
INTENDED USE
The intent of the Chin Restraint is to restrict the mouth from opening during Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) treatment and minimize air loss through the mouth. It can be used in conjunction with a wide range of mask and pillow systems.
The Chin Restraint is intended for single patient re-use.
If possible, have the Chin Restraint initially fitted by staff at your sleep disorders center or by your equipment supplier.
FITTING THE CHIN RESTRAINT
The Chin Restraint shall be fitted before fitting the mask.
- Fit the Chin Restraint over your chin so that the edge with the stitched ‘V’ mark is closest to your bottom lip. Bring the straps up past your cheeks and fasten the Velcro® at the top of your head.
- If necessary, adjust the straps to provide sufficient support to your chin. Ensure that the Chin Restraint is securely fitted before fitting the mask over it.
Note:
If you experience any difficulty with the fitting of the Chin Restraint, consult your physician or equipment supplier.
CAUTION
- Do not position the Chin Restraint so that it obstructs your mouth or restricts the airflow of the mask system.
- Do not position the Chin Restraint completely beneath the chin or across your upper throat.
- Do not overtighten the Chin Restraint.
- Do not use the Chin Restraint if you have flu or cold symptoms.
- If symptoms of a dry/sore mouth/throat occur, consult your physician or sleep therapist.
- If any visible deterioration (eg, wear, fraying, excessive stretching, tears) of the Chin Restraint is apparent, the Chin Restraint should be discarded and replaced.
