N20 face mask ADJUST/ADJUST
ON my daily print out with resmed which tells me how long i have been using CPAP they keep telling me to adjust my face mask , well i keep adjusting it but it has not made any difference so i am not getting the full benefit, you think i need a different type of mask , this one is only 6 months old, any advice please.
Hi there! That seems frustrating - especially with such a new machine setup. I'm wondering if you feel like the mask fits properly? While we wait for some of the other community members to chime in, I thought I might leave a couple of articles here that may have some helpful information in there. In this one (https://sleepapnea.sleep-disorders.net/living/trying-new-cpap-mask) Mike talks about his specific ResMed mask fitting/changes; though, I'm not sure if you're using the exact same machine/mask. And this one (https://sleepapnea.sleep-disorders.net/living/cpap-mask-troubleshooting) gives some more general guidance for troubleshooting mask issues.
Additionally, if you haven't already, it might help to discuss this issue with the doctor, sleep tech, or respiratory therapist that helped you get the machine to see if they could help with the fitting issues. We hope everything gets cleared up soon! Keep us updated if you can. Warm wishes, Alyssa (Team Member)
