Philips Nuance CPAP Nasal Mask, Minimal Contact, Gel Pad, Variants

The Nuance Respiratory Mask by Philips Respironics is available in 2 different finishes and features minimal facial contact while wearing and unique gel technology.

This developed gel technology offers increased comfort and also the best possible oxygen supply. Because the seal on the nose and not inside the nose avoids air leakage. This ensures a comfortable sleep.

This is underlined by the construction, which emphasizes minimal facial contact. Because the mask is equipped with a faceless frame that is supported by a non-slip headband, made of fabric or gel padded, the best possible support. Also, the adaptation to your own head and face shape through this frame is optimal and easy to perform.

Furthermore, the nasal mask has an integrated exhalation valve and thus does not require a separate exhalation port.
