Whisper Swivel II - Question & Price Info.

Post by sleepWellShiva » Mon Dec 04, 2006 4:47 pm

hi all,

I am using a image 3 mask. I wanted to know if I use whisper swivel II as exhalation device will it be ok.

I also wanted to know if through whisper swivel ii one can bleed oxygen. I am suffering from COPD and my doctor advises me to take oxygen with the Bipap therapy. my previous exhaltion value from respironics had a port for connecting oxygen supply, but they seem to have discontinued the model.

Also guys how much should it cost. I am not from US and will prefer buying online.

Thanks in advanve for your inputs.

I am not familar with the mask you are using. The whisper swivel would provide and exhalation port I would think if your oxygen was delivered after the swivel it would be okay.

but the whisper swivel does carry this warning:
Whisper Swivel is used to remove waste gas from the circuit and remove hose torque. It is to be used only with Respironics Reusable Silicone Contour, Gold Seal and older Profile Lite masks that do not come with a swivel. Do not use this with other masks.
