ResMed AirFit P10 Nasal Pillows System

ResMed AirFit P10 Nasal Pillows System

PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED

The AirFit P10 nasal pillows mask from ResMed promises increased comfort and better performance for CPAP therapy patients. Almost 50% lighter and 50% quieter than ResMed’s previous nasal pillows mask design, the AirFit P10 also proved more effective during a mask comparison study where patients gained 40 minutes of additional sleep per night using the new AirFit P10. Lightweight, quiet and unobtrusive, the AirFit P10 nasal pillows represent an exciting CPAP mask upgrade for patients who use the ResMed AirSense 10 CPAP, AirSense 10 AutoSet and AirSense 10 Elite sleep apnea machines.

• Ultra Quiet

ResMed hails the AirFit P10 nasal pillows as its “quietest mask to date,” claiming an approximate noise reduction of 50% from its predecessor model, the ResMed Swift™ FX nasal pillows. The AirFit P10 mask incorporates ResMed’s new QuietAir™ woven-mesh venting, which gently redirects exhaled air in such a way that it’s barely noticed by you or your sleeping partner.

• Lightweight and Unobtrusive

Weighing only 1.6 ounces when fully assembled, the AirFit 10 nasal pillows are 50% lighter than the previous Swift FX nasal pillows system. The AirFit 10’s also features a lightweight yet durable flex-tube, which allows patients easy freedom of movement without compromising mask seal.

• Flexible Nasal Pillows

The AirFit P10’s nasal pillows are clearly marked for sizing as well as for left/right orientation, helping ensure a snug, comfortable fit. The nasal pillows are also flexible enough to allow for compression and movement without breaking their seal, thus better accommodating changes in sleeping position.

• Easy Fit and Quick Assembly

The nasal pillows are easily clipped into the compact mask body, which is then connected to the AirFit P10’s QuickFit™ elastic headgear. The simple three-piece design is easy to assemble and clean. Delivering a snug yet comfortable fit, the QuickFit headgear does away with cumbersome Velcro straps or clips. Instead the headgear is easily adjusted by moving the two back straps wider or closer together. (A special version of the P10, the ResMed AirFit P10 for Her nasal pillows system caters specifically to the needs of women.)

• Simple, Effective, Award-Winning Design

Clinical tests conducted by ResMed claim AirFit P10 patients enjoyed an additional 40 minutes of sleep per night compared with the Swift FX predecessor. Already backed by the positive feedback of numerous Sleep Direct customers, the AirFit 10 nasal pillows also earned professional recognition as a 2014 recipient of the Red Dot Award for excellent product design.

FAQ's

Q:  How do I know if the P10 mask is right for me?  

A:  If you breathe through your mouth during your sleep therapy, it is likely the P10 is not the right mask for you.  If you do prefer to use the P10 but are also a mouth breather, it is recommended to use the P10 with a chinstrap.  

Q:  What sizes are available for the P10 mask?

A:   There are two versions of the P10 mask.  There is the standard version of the P10, which includes cushion sizes small, medium, and large.  Also available is the P10 For Her, which includes extra small, small, and medium size cushions.  If none of these sizes work for you, you may also consider using a nasal pillow liner for a better fit.  

Q:  How often should I replace my mask pillow?

A:  Do not go longer than 3 months without changing out your pillow.  Changing the pillow every 1 to 2 months is ideal as it helps prevent bacteria growth.

Q:  Why is my P10 mask leaking air?  

A:  Be sure that you are wearing the correct size of cushion if the air is escaping during your sleep therapy.  Also, check both the frame and hose for signs of wear and tear. 

Q:  Is it difficult to assemble the P10 mask?

A: The mask comes assembled and takes less than a minute to fit correctly. 

Q:  The P10 mask fits, but needs a little adjusting to fit more comfortably.  What can I do?

A:  Bring the mask towards your nose and fit the pillows inside of your nostrils.  If the cushion does not fit, try a different size. 

Q:  How do you fit the P10 headgear?

A:  The P10 comes with headgear clips to help you get your most comfortable fit.  Also, it is important to not over-tighten the headgear, as this will cause it to stretch out quickly and lose elasticity.  ResMed recommends putting the headgear in cold water to help restore some tension to the headgear if it stretched out.

Q:  How long does the headgear last?

A:  Generally, the P10 headgear lasts anywhere between 6 to 9 months.   

Q:  Does this version of the P10 mask work with the AirMini?

A.  No, it does not. To connect your P10 to the ResMed AirMini, you'll need the ResMed P10 AirMini CPAP Setup Pack.

Q:  How should I clean my P10 mask?

A:  Ideally, the user should clean the P10 mask once a day using warm and soaped water.  Do not use chemicals to clean--any mild soap will do.  Once cleaned, wipe down your mask with a clean towel.  Further, do not dry your P10 away in direct sunlight, as this can damage the material over time.
