Help knowing right Resmed parts to use..........

Post by Country4ever » Sun Apr 10, 2022 8:06 am

I need your help. I've been using the Swift II nasal pillows forever. The cpap company in my small town moved away, and wasn't that good anyway. My cpap doc just retired. Anyhow.....here's my problem.
I've kept my old cpap hoses/pillows etc. from the past. I clean and reuse them most of the time because I really don't think we need to get new ones as often as they'd like us to believe. A couple of times I ordered new pillows with the "frame" and "clip", and they started sending the wrong ones. I went to clean everything today and change a few things and realized that I may have been using the wrong "clip" with the wrong "frame". They are different in their placement of open holes/slats. I've tried to do a search online of the different models, but I can't find anything. Any images I can find do not show exactly what I need to know. Anyone able to help me figure out which clip goes with which frame for the Swift II nasal mask? I wonder if I've been using the wrong combination of parts for quite awhile, and maybe that's why I'm feeling so bad....wondering if I'm not ventilating properly.
I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks!
P.S.........I may be confusing a Swift and a Swift II frame and clip. My poor brain is having trouble..........

Sometimes asking a question helps one to think, and a solution arises.
More often it doesn't.
Congratulations. Your brain works better than you thought.

I do some of my best thinking when "in conference" with myself.
Some may think I'm a wee bit daft--and maybe they are right,
but most of them have no idea how well it works.
