ResMed Quattro Air NV Manual Del Usuario página 9


At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow (if used), the inhaled
oxygen concentration varies depending on the pressure settings,
patient breathing pattern, mask size selection and leak rate.

Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen must not be used while
smoking or in the presence of an open flame. Only use oxygen in
well ventilated rooms.

The technical specifications of the mask are provided for your
clinician to check that they are compatible with the ventilator. If
used outside specification or if used with incompatible devices,
the seal and comfort of the mask may not be effective, optimum
therapy may not be achieved, and leak, or variation in the rate of
leak, may affect the ventilator function.

Discontinue using this mask if you have ANY adverse reaction to
the use of the mask, and consult your physician or sleep therapist.

Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate
an existing dental condition. If symptoms occur, consult your
physician or dentist.

Refer to your ventilator manual for details on settings and
operational information.

Remove all packaging before using the mask.
Using your mask
ResMed has tinted the Quattro Air NV elbow blue to identify it as a
non-vented mask.
The Quattro Air NV has a standard female 22mm tapered fitting for
external connection to the ventilator.
Use a standard conical connector if pressure readings and/or
supplemental oxygen are required.
Fitting
1. Remove the elbow from the mask by pressing the side buttons and
pulling the elbow away.
2. With both lower headgear straps released, hold the mask against your
face and pull the headgear over your head. Ensure that the label on
the back of the headgear faces outwards when the headgear is put
on.
3. Undo the fastening tabs on the upper headgear straps. Pull the straps
evenly until the mask is stable and positioned as shown in the
illustrations. Reattach the fastening tabs.
