Thank you for choosing the Mirage Micro™.
Intended Use
The Mirage Micro channels airflow noninvasively to a patient from a positive
airway pressure device such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
or bilevel system.
The Mirage Micro is:
to be used by adult patients (>30 kg) for whom positive airway pressure •
has been prescribed.
intended for single-patient re-use in the home environment and
•
multipatient re-use in the hospital/institutional environment.
Before Using the Mask
WARNINGS
The vent holes must be kept clear. •
Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen. •
Oxygen flow must be turned off when the flow generator is not operating, •
so that unused oxygen does not accumulate within the flow generator
enclosure and create a risk of fire.
At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen
•
concentration varies, depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing
pattern, mask, point of application and leak rate.
The technical specifications of the mask are provided for your clinician to
•
check that they are compatible with the flow generator. If used outside
specification or if used with incompatible devices, the seal and comfort of
the mask may not be effective, optimum therapy may not be achieved, and
leak, or variation in the rate of leak, may affect the flow generator function.
Discontinue using the Mirage Micro if you have ANY adverse reaction to
•
the use of the mask, and consult your physician or sleep therapist.
Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate an
•
existing dental condition. If symptoms occur, consult your physician or
dentist.
Refer to your flow generator manual for details on settings and operational
•
information.
