cushion falls off mask

Post by georgepds » Sun Sep 20, 2009 9:55 am

Hi I use an "Ultra Mirage II Nasal CPAP Mask with Headgear". After a while the cushion, which looks perfectly OK refuses to stay on the mask

Any simple solution? Does buying a new cushion solve this problem?

TIA

Hi, this may be obvious, but have you looked at the thin plastic piece that snaps over the edges and holds it to the mask - they can break without it being obvious and you could probably use tape or glue, etc. to repair til you get a new one (been there, done that, same mask).
