I use an Activa Nasal mask, size small. The head gear straps on the new ones I’ve been getting will not stay sealed. The Velcro -like stuff doesn’t work.
Can anyone recommend any other head gear that would work with an Activa nasal, small?
I’ve tried 5 or 6 masks of different sizes and cannot use them because I have no finger strength or dexterity to manipulate any but the Activa. Thanks.
head gear?

Re: head gear?
Can you (or a friend) sew them together (a few large basting stitches) once you have the right adjustment lined up?
Re: head gear?
Sewing Velcro on it will probably be the best way to go. I had someone sew some on my newest gear and, God bless her little heart, she didn't put it where I told and showed her to.
This what my hands look like:

These are the masks I've tried and the reasons I can't use them or decided not to try. Basal masks are the only ones I can use.

Re: head gear?
Have you looked at the N20? The straps have magnets so they are easy to get on/offephraimh wrote: ↑Sat Jan 18, 2020 10:19 pmSewing Velcro on it will probably be the best way to go.
