Therapy success begins with the right mask

Create a positive PAP therapy experience from day one

Personalise mask selection at setup

Success starts with choosing the right mask.

During setup, tailoring mask selection to meet each patient’s unique needs and preferences, rather than relying on a routine choice, helps achieve a mask that truly fits.

Patients sleep better.
And you reduce:

• next-day discomfort calls
• early switching
• leak troubleshooting1,2

But when the mask isn’t right, early changes are often needed.
7.2x higher therapy discontinuation with mask switching2

This can lead to higher dropout rates and create additional workload for care teams.1,2

Empower patients to stay engaged

Getting the mask right is the first step. Keeping patients engaged makes it last.
Early patient engagement, along with personalised digital support, helps drive therapy adherence.

With the right education and behavioural support:

With growing confidence, minor mask issues can be managed independently, so you spend less time troubleshooting.

As patients start to settle into therapy, remote monitoring helps you spot mask issues early allowing you to intervene if needed.

And where PAP adherence is low, studies show that early mask adjustments within the first 3 months can improve usage. 4

Renew masks for long-term success

To maintain good quality therapy and a comfortable
experience, it’s important that masks are replaced
regularly.
