Extra filter Oxygen Mask with 2.1 meter hose
Patients with respiratory infections have specific needs and yet pose a
specific risk. Conventional oxygen masks can generate a plume of
particles from their exhalation ports, which can travel a distance of
0.4 metresresulting in a potential risk.
This Mask combines an oxygen delivery system with a filter media
covering the exhalation ports. The Mask is intended for use on patients
with respiratory infections who may be a source of aerosolised
infectious pathogens and who also require supplementary oxygen.
The Mask is designed to reduce the risk to paramedics, hospital staff and visitors[3].
Features and benefits include:
- Incurved face seal providing improved level of fit and comfort
- On-chin positioning providing a better fit to a wider range of face shapes
- Low elastic position eliminating trauma to the patient's ears
- Integral filter media reducing the risk of escaping aerosols
