On Monday, ResMed added two new additions to the AirFit line, a nasal and full face mask. What makes these AirFit™ masks so special, and how do you know which one you should try? Read on to learn more!
Learning the Differences
While all three of the masks have nearly identical names, you can remember which is which by using the letter in front of the “10”.
N = Nasal
F = Full Face
P = Pillow (as in Nasal Pillow)
New! AirFit N10 Nasal Mask
The most interesting thing about the new N10 mask is the unique magnetic attachments of the headgear to the frame. At first blush, this might sound like an inadequate method for holding the mask together, but the magnets are surprisingly strong and the construction of the connection helps eliminate accidental detachment from active sleepers. Overall, the mask is remarkably light and typical of ResMed’s usual design: sleek, minimal and forward thinking. We are eager to see what the reviews will say!
New! AirFit F10 Full Face Mask
The most attractive feature of the F10 is how light it is. Weighing in at under 3.3 ounces, this mask is the lightest full face mask ResMed has released to date. Like many recent offerings, this mask does not utilize a forehead support which is great if you enjoy reading or watching TV before bed. ResMed full face masks are typically the most popular and highest rated in this category, it will be interesting to see how users like this one. Best of all, though – this mask is priced well under other ResMed full face options.
AirFit P10 Nasal Pillow Mask
The P10 was launched in January of this year and is currently the #1 selling nasal pillow mask on CPAP.com. The lightweight design is a huge pinnacle of the mask, but users have mostly been raving about the quiet and gentle exhalation port. The unique style headgear doesn’t allow for as many adjustments as a more traditional style, but many appreciate the trade off for a simpler, easily fit design.

I have after a sleep study discovered that i have modtaree obstructive sleep apnea. I was wondering if that would qualify me for modafinil prescription. I currently take 3-4 caffiene pills a day to cope with daytime sleepiness. Would that be adequate for me to obtain a prescription for modafinil?
PoLo,
For those with Sleep Apnea, we do know CPAP therapy is the best and most effective option as this allows your body to actually get sleep and recharge your body, instead of masking fatigue with a stimulant.
As far as what would qualify you for a prescription for Modafinil, that is outside of our expertise, so I would advise you seek advice from your doctor.
