For bilevel or CPAP, hospital or home The Total Face mask is a comfortable alternative for patients who may not be able to obtain a good seal with a nasal mask, experience skin breakdown, or who are claustrophobic. Because the Total Face mask covers the entire face, there are no pressure points around the nose to cause sores or skin breakdown. An effective seal is created around the outside of the face as air pressure from the system inflates the soft, flexible sealing layer. This minimizes leaks while providing optimal airflow through the nasal passages. And because the air pressure can circulate throughout the mask, it allows more natural, comfortable breathing for the patient. Made of clear plastic, the lightweight faceplate adds to the comfort of Total Face mask. It does not obstruct the patient's vision, which helps to minimize the feeling of claustrophobia that some patients experience.

Even, secure fit with fewer leaks

The Total Face Mask comes with comfortable, easy-to-use headgear. Sturdy cloth side straps and a mesh crown strap keep the mask evenly and securely in place and help to prevent mask leaks. Adjustable Velcro tabs on the straps attach to hooks on the faceplate of the mask for stable placement.

Comfortable and easy to use

Integral exhalation ports provide a continuous leak path in the circuit. The clear faceplate does not obstruct the user's vision. An entrainment valve allows the patient to breathe room air if pressure is discontinued as in the case of power failure. Headgear straps attach to Velcro hooks for secure mask placement, and a quick-release cord enables fast removal. The pressure pickoff port allows connection to a proximal pressure line or monitoring device.
