Study Objectives:To determine if the type of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) mask interface influences CPAP treatment efficacy, adherence, side effects, comfort and sleep quality in patients with moderate-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).Methods:This took place in a hospital-based ...
However, irreversible damage to the elastic bands of the facemask may occur, particularly when stretched during treatment (Fig. 9); stretching causes increased exposure of the polymer bonds to ozone attack, eventually leading to failures during active usage, thus leaving the wearer unprotected. It ...
