ResMed AirFit™ N30i Nasal Cradle CPAP Mask Trial

RE: ResMed AirFit™ N30i Nasal Cradle CPAP Mask Trial
You’re welcome ☺️ 

I’ve just received my N30i and will be trying it for the first time tonight. It was supplied with a standard frame and medium cushion, but I have a feeling I will need a small frame and a Small or Small Wide cushion. It’s getting expensive ? 

I used lip plasters for a while (Somnifix), they worked but are expensive here in the UK. I am usually a nose breather, but my mouth does drop occasionally. So I am just trying to stop my mouth opening by training it with my tongue and using Xylitol lozengers or gel. I couldn’t get on with a chin strap and I like the hose on my head ? 

Good luck.

Thanks Shazbat!

My DME Supplier allowed me to try the N30i.  The first head frame was the wrong size. They exchanged it, and provided two nose pieces.

I understand/remember that people here use a piece from the Respironics Dreamwear and that helps prevent the head gear from moving on the ResMed

I used to be fine. However, I'm older now.   Cool  I'll try lozenges...good hint. Thanks! Rescue Remedy lozenges...
