Re: Suggest a mask based on this issue with the mirage quatro
If you have a whole bunch of masks and no use for them, send them on to Pugsy. She redistributes them to needy folks.

Re: Suggest a mask based on this issue with the mirage quatro
The mask that I use I have not seen any one in this board using. Most of the time I use the mask without the chinstrap and the head straps are completely lose. The leak is hi at 24 L/Min for 95% of time, but the S9 AutoSet can deal with it and treats all events.Papit wrote:If you have a whole bunch of masks and no use for them, send them on to Pugsy.

stratapastor, imo, you should stick to Mirage Quattro, which is a full face, and not switch to another kind of mask, especially not to a nasal mask, without looking at treatment graphs.

I suggest that you try a ResMed AirFit™ F10 Full Face Mask with Headgear. No forehead involvement whatsoever. I use a home made, microfiber liner with a F10 mask and am very happy with the results & comfort level. Good luck !

Re: Suggest a mask based on this issue with the mirage quatro
WRONG......Most insurance ALLOWS replacement according to that schedule if needed. Masks last MUCH LONGER than 3 months. Most other supplies, like hoses, last for a year or more.misflt wrote:You are supposed to change masks every 3 months, cushions every 3 months, tubes 3 months, humidity chamber 6 months, headgear 6 months, felt filter biweekly, foam filter 6 months. The medical supply company calls and asks questions. If you answer yes, they send new supplies for the things your answers indicate are not working properly. If you say something is loose, leaks, is oily and can't be cleaned, is cracked or bent or flattened, it is replaced. If you don't change out the parts on schedule, you will accumulate parts and supplies, that is how he amassed so many. From now on, maybe he will use his supplies or stop saying the ones he has are in need of replacement.

Re: Suggest a mask based on this issue with the mirage quatro
I started with that mask, but switched to the F & P Simplus. This mask sits lower on the nose, and the small forehead piece fits snuggle against the skin. I had a problem with the mask riding up, but use two pieces of paper tape to hold it down. Now, it works fine for me.
