Intended Use
The BiTrac Full Face mask is an accessory for use with CPAP or Bilevel systems used in the treatment of adult
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and/or ventilatory support. A minimum pressure of > 3.0cm H
required.
Contraindications
1. This device should not be used on uncooperative or unresponsive patients.
2. This device may not be suitable for use on patients unable to remove the mask or are taking medication which
may cause vomiting.
Warnings
1. This mask does not have an integral leak port; therefore a separate exhalation device must be part of the
circuit. Utilize the equipment manufacturer's recommended exhalation port in the designated circuit.
2. This device is not suitable for providing life support ventilation.
3. Any unusual chest discomfort, shortness of breath, stomach distension, belching, severe headache, drying
eyes, eye pain, eye infections or blurred vision when receiving positive airway pressure or upon awakening
should be reported to the clinician.
4. To minimize risks of vomiting during sleep, avoid eating or drinking for three (3) hours before use.
5. If skin irritation develops, this may be due to excessive pressure or skin reaction or a combination of the two.
Loosen the headgear and/or try another mask or forehead pad size.
6. This CPAP mask should only be used with CPAP systems recommended by your physician or respiratory
therapist. A mask should not be used unless the CPAP system is turned ON and operating properly. The vent
hole or holes associated with the mask should never be blocked.
Explanation of the Warning: CPAP systems are intended to be used with the special masks with connectors
which have vent holes to allow continuous flow of air out of the mask. When the CPAP machine is turned on
and functioning properly, new air from the CPAP machine flushes the exhaled air out through the attached mask
exhalation port. However, when the CPAP machine is not operating, enough fresh air will not be provided
through the mask, and exhaled air may be rebreathed. Rebreathing of exhaled air for longer than several
C
minutes can in some circumstances lead to suffocation. This warning applies to most models of CPAP systems.
