BiPAP and Full face masks

Post by Joe A.. » Mon Sep 19, 2005 10:00 am

Anyone usea full face mask with a bilevel divice and feel that their treatment is successful?

I am about to have a Re-Titration Study and an MSLT with my Resmed Mirage Ultra FFM. I haven't gotten a good nights sleep since I abandoned the Chin Strap/Activa Nasal interface because the chin strap was cutting into my face.

Just wondering if FFM are not a good bet for Bi-Level instruments?

I have a full face mask but I don't use it because it seems to come alive on its own. I would like to know how you do with the Ultra Mirage FF mask on a BiPap though. So, please, let me know if it works for you. I've been eyeing that mask for potential use during cold and allergy season.
