S9 with Hybrid mask - what mask setting to use?

Post by CynConn » Thu Jul 08, 2010 11:33 am

My clinician had the mask setting on my S9 set for "Pillows". I changed it to "Full Face" since that is what the Hybrid mask is (and of course I always figure I know better than the "experts" ). Is that the setting I should use?

Thanks,
Cynthia

"Pillows" is probably wrong. It's hard to know how to advise you because ResMed's online chart for mask settings has not been updated to include the S9s. One day maybe ResMed will wake up.

I asked the same question when I first got my Mirage Liberty (Hybrid) and the answer I got is FFM. So you are correct.
