Constructed from soft, high-grade vinyl, this disposable mask features an anatomically contoured under-the-chin design for a secure and comfortable fit. It includes a 7-foot crush-resistant oxygen supply tubing and a reservoir bag with one-way valves to prevent rebreathing of exhaled gases, ensuring efficient oxygen delivery.
Key Benefits
High-Concentration Oxygen Delivery: Capable of delivering up to 90% FiO2 when used with appropriate oxygen flow rates, facilitating rapid patient oxygenation in critical situations.
Patient Comfort: Soft vinyl construction with smooth, feathered edges reduces irritation and enhances comfort during use.
Safety Features: One-way valves prevent the inhalation of ambient air and rebreathing of exhaled gases, ensuring the delivery of pure oxygen.
Durable Tubing: The 7-foot crush-resistant tubing maintains consistent oxygen flow and allows for patient mobility.
Latex-Free: Suitable for patients with latex sensitivities, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.
