CPAP masks are certainly no stranger to patients with sleep apnea. However, owning a support device, no matter how much, will make you feel entangled and uncomfortable. To avoid that situation, CLM Sleep will introduce to you the Fisher & Paykel Nova Micro Pillows Mask product, designed with attention to the level of darkness and comfort.
Overview of Fisher & Paykel Nova Micro
The Nova Micro is a nasal pillow mask from leading healthcare brand Fisher & Paykel, designed to be used for CPAP therapy. The Fisher & Paykel Nova Micro is known to be one of the smallest and lightest CPAP masks on the market, making it a popular choice for those looking for a minimalist and comfortable option. Having 3 main components include Nasal Pillows, Headgear and Mask Frame.
Constituents of the F&P Nova Micro Mask Kit
The criteria for choosing materials for this product are softness, durability and skin-friendliness. The main components of this mask product are:
Nasal Pillows
- Medical-grade silicone: This material is soft, flexible, and hypoallergenic, making it ideal for creating a gentle seal around the nostrils.
- Non-woven fabric: Often used to cover the silicone, providing additional comfort and reducing friction.
Headgear
- Elastic fabric: The headgear is typically made of a stretchy fabric to ensure a customizable fit for various head sizes.
- Flexible plastic: Some parts of the headgear may include flexible plastic for durability and shape retention.
Mask Frame
- Lightweight plastic: The frame is usually constructed from lightweight plastic to minimize the mask’s overall weight and bulk.
- Non-woven fabric: Similar to the nasal pillows, non-woven fabric may be used to cover parts of the frame for added comfort.
Features of Nova Micro Masks
Here are some of the key features of the Nova Micro mask:
- Lightweight and compact: The Nova Micro weighs less than 40 grams and has a small profile, reducing the feeling of bulkiness on the face.
- Soft and comfortable: The MicroPillows cushion gently nestles within the nostrils and inflates to conform to the patient’s nose, providing a comfortable and secure fit.
- Minimal Contact: The Nova Micro Pillows Mask is designed to minimize contact with the face, reducing the potential for skin irritation or discomfort.
- Easy-adjusting headgear: The headgear features dual-sided adjustments, allowing patients to fine-tune the fit on each side of the face for optimal comfort.
- Quiet Operation: The mask is designed to be quiet, reducing noise disturbances and promoting a peaceful sleep environment.
- Minimal design: The Nova Micro’s minimalist design reduces mask contact on the face, potentially minimizing discomfort, facial irritation, and red marks.
