Resmed Mirage Swift II CPAP Nasal Pillow Mask

Overview Resmed Mirage Swift II CPAP Nasal Pillow Mask

Resmed Mirage Swift 2 is a CPAP mask with nasal pillows for sleep apnea therapy . Nasal pillow masks are the smallest interface for treating apnea and use pillow pad inserts that seal the nostrils. The Swift™ II is an older generation of the ResMed Mirage family of CPAP masks. The short hose arrangement allows the user to position the hose either sideways or over the head.

A nasal pillow CPAP mask is usually prescribed to users who use a standard CPAP or auto-CPAP machine with a pressure setting below 12cm/H20.

If your CPAP pressure is higher than 12cm/H20, you can still use a nasal pillow CPAP mask. However, as a result, you may be at increased risk of dryness and irritation. For these users, it is recommended to use a heated humidifier and heated CPAP hose (if available).

Advantages of the Resmed Mirage Swift 2

Extremely quiet: 86% quieter than the original Swift; The Swift II mask is particularly quiet and can help improve your sleep and that of your partner.

The vent is located on the frame instead of the cushion and gently distributes air downward, mimicking natural breathing.

Small, lightweight, and travel-friendly: At 2.5 ounces, this mask won't weigh you down. It has a very small footprint that provides less coverage to the face.

The pillows rest gently under the nose and are ideal for users who read or watch TV before bed. It folds to make traveling easier for users who travel frequently.

Above all, the minimal design creates convenience and helps users comply with regulations by proving to be completely user-friendly.

Improved Cushions: The details are microscopic, but the user can feel it. ResMed has conducted extensive studies using anthropometry (comparative study of human body measurements) using a variety of nasal and facial features to improve the design of the pillows.

This allows for better sealing and optimized comfort while serving a wide range of people. All pillow sizes are interchangeable with the mask frame.

Adjustable Angle: An adjustable, rotating cushion cover allows the user to select the best angle to suit their unique facial features, ensuring optimal comfort and a superior seal.

Flexibility matters: The pillows, the pillow sleeves and the neck that connect them are flexible and supple, providing greater comfort and a better fit with some movements of the nose and facial features.

Easy to assemble: After the initial assembly and adjustment, the Swift II can be put on without Velcro or clips. No daily readjustment required.

Easy to clean: Assembly and disassembly is simple and straightforward with only a few parts, making it easy to clean or replace parts.

Choice of hose position: The hose can be placed up (attached to the headgear) or down and on either side to provide the user with freedom, comfort and flexibility.

Overall discussion about the Resmed Mirage Swift II CPAP mask kit

The ResMed Mirage Swift 2 design not only offers maximum comfort, but is also designed to prevent air leakage, which is common among many CPAP users.

The Mirage Swift II is 86% quieter with improved ventilation that also circulates air away from the patient and bed partner.

ResMed Mirage Swift2 pillows are designed to provide the least amount of nasal irritation and dryness often associated with CPAP nasal interfaces. Replaceable cushions can be purchased separately to ensure long life for the ResMed Mirage Swift 2.

This CPAP nasal interface can be used with both CPAP and BiPAP therapy, but is recommended for pressures between 4 and 12 cmH2O with BiPAP therapy.

The Mirage Swift II also weighs less than 2.5 ounces and multiple tube placement options allow for even greater convenience.

The Swift II nasal pillows have been redesigned to be thinner and provide a better seal. This mask is very soft and comfortable and flexible.

The great thing about the Swift II is that the tube can come out of either side of the mask. It is so easy to take apart and put back together unlike some of the newer masks on the market. If you like nasal pillow style masks, you should try the Swift 2.

Mask sleep apnea for CPAP therapy

Sleep apnea mask therapy with a CPAP mask is now a common method for treating sleep apnea. The abbreviation CPAP stands for “Continuous Positive Airway Pressure”.

The CPAP mask directs the room air through the respiratory tract using positive pressure. The slight excess pressure stabilizes the tissue in the nose and throat area and keeps it open.

The CPAP mask for sleep apnea is a soft plastic mask that is pulled over the mouth and nose or just over the nose. The mask is held in place with rubber bands.

The mask is then connected to a ventilator with a tube. The ventilators work with a continuous build-up of excess pressure.

For the user, this results in better oxygen saturation of the cardiovascular system. The continuous positive pressure prevents the trachea from narrowing. This reduces the risk of pauses in breathing.

Alternative to the sleep apnea mask

A permanent cure for obstructive mask sleep apnea can only be achieved by eliminating the cause. The cause of obstructive sleep apnea is usually a backward jaw position.

By advancing the jaw using bimaxillary advancement, a permanent opening of the airway can be achieved. We would be happy to give you further information in a consultation.

 

Finally, The Mirage Swift 2 is one of the quietest and lightest masks on the market. It gives the patient a feeling of freedom.

The super-quiet AutoSet Spirit for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) offers full therapy effectiveness despite providing comparatively low pressure.
