Breeze Dilator Pillows

Post by puffing billy » Mon May 29, 2006 12:00 pm

Having got used to my breeze nasal pillows (mostly) I wondered how well the dilator pillows work, as my pressure is 17 and when I move at all I get mini leaks.

Funny... I have breeze as well... but can't really say how well the dilator pillows work because they are the ONLY pillow I have tried!!!!!!

But.... they never did leak And they did work better for me than the swift pillows did.

So.... maybe they would help

I've used both the regular and the dilator pillows on the breeze and I found that the dilators are much more leak free than the regular pillows. That said, they also are firmer and go up further in your nostril and hurt somewhat.

I got my leak rate way down with the dilator pillows on the Breeze but switched to the Swift nasal pillows mask because I like to move around and sleep on my back sometimes and the Swift seems to be a more comfortable mask.
But I got lower leak rates with the Breeze with the dilators.
