tape P10 hose on chin

Hi all,

The P10 fits into my nose rather well but during the night I have leaks sometimes as the hose pulls on the mask and it wakes me up. It seems that I became sensitive to the noise of leaks.

As anyone tried to tape the small hose on the chin ?

Thanks for sharing

tired with dreamware

Hi all, I have tried the dreamware for more than a week. I felt more tired each day despite good numbers (low leaks, low AHI). Sometimes I would wake up during the night feel the mask moving a little like a stick-slip motion coming from the top of the mask. I did let it for a few nights. Then I deci...

Re: the bottom of my nose touches the mask

FFM : I have an F10, lots of leaks near the nose (narrow nose) into the eyes. Not very comfortable in general to me. I didn't even tried to go to sleep with it. I guess FFM will be my last resort. You seem to be happy with yours.

Re: the bottom of my nose touches the mask

Mask size :
-Wisp M
-Eson M

When I tried Wisp L, I saw no difference, the bottom of my nose touches the bottom of the mask. As if the size of the mask takes into account the size of the nose but not how deep the nose goes.

I also tried to set up the mask lower on my face but there isn't much to do.

Re: Argh my CPAP slid off the bedside table

My wife's CPAP dropped from the table once and it got broken and had to be replaced.
It's been on the floor ever since.

the bottom of my nose touches the mask

Hi, I have two nasal masks (Wisp and ESON). The bottom of my nose (collumela) touches the mask , it just rests on the bottom of the mask, not much pressure involved. After two days, this really turns into pain. As I still have some mask leaks with the P10 and brevida, and as I had no mask leaks with...

Re: Mouth leaks

Thank you all for your answers. I taped my mouth and had wake ups due to my cheeks puffing up. I got rid of this issue by puncturing the tape with a toothpick to make a small hole between my lips. During the night if pressured air comes into my mouth, it does escape slowly through the little hole. ...

Re: Mouth leaks

How much time : bad days 15% above 24l/min with 13 minutes straight above 35l/min.

It is not waking me more than twice a night, with humidity, but my wife is really disturbed by it.

Re: Mouth leaks

No I haven't tried yet.
If I do, I guess that my cheeks will puff up, there will be no way out for the air in my mouth except in my stomach. Is this true ?

Mouth leaks

Greetings to you. First message here. I am primarily a nose breather and I use a nostril mask (brevida). I believe that there is no leak with this mask. Nevertheless there are major leaks shown on Sleepyhead, some times associated with dry mouth. My understanding is that my tongue gets relaxed durin...
