New nasal CPAP mask

Hans Rudolph Inc. has designed a new nasal CPAP/bilevel mask for obstructive sleep apnea therapy. The mask is soft, light and low deadspace with multiple face sealing options to guarantee a good seal and comfort during CPAP therapy. The patient can choose from three sealing surfaces as desired, such as a soft silicone rubber mask flange, soothing Ultimate Seal™ gel accessory or a new lightweight, super-soft Comfort Seal™ foam accessory. An adjustable nose strap on the mask allows for additional custom fitting and forming to the patients nose contour. Its like three masks in one, simplifying the decision for a mask that not only seals but feels good. With all these options this new nasal CPAP mask is the clear choice for successful CPAP therapy on a nightly basis.

Mask seals:
comfort seal™ and ultimate seal™

Hans Rudolph Inc. has two mask seals that improve the seal and add comfort, while wearing a Hans Rudolph Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or full face mask.

The new Comfort Seal™ is a disposable foam interface accessory for our nasal CPAP and full face masks designed to improve mask sealing and comfort for patients during CPAP and ventilation therapy or pulmonary function test. The Comfort Seal™ is manufactured of a unique super-soft inert foam. The Comfort Seals™ are shaped to mate with Hans Rudolph masks and they are easy to apply, with a pressure sensitive adhesive on one side that attaches to the mask.

The Ultimate Seal™ is manufactured of a unique hydrogel material and molded in the geometry of the sealing surface of the Hans Rudolph nasal CPAP and full face masks. This optional accessory allows greater comfort and the assurance of a leak-free proper fit by foaming an intimate seal between the face and the mask. The Ultimate Seal™ incorporates the latest in gel technology and is constructed of a moisture permeable substance which can prevent leaks in addition to providing an ideal environment for wound healing or prevention. The product allows the skin to breathe while creating a comfortable barrier between the patient's facial skin and the mask.
