Evora Nose Mask - Help - Agostino - 09-07-2024
Good morning
I am writing from Italy, sorry for my imperfect English. I have been using CPAP for a week and I am still confused. I use the Evora nasal mask, it is quite comfortable but the system tells me that the seal of the mask is not good. I am still a novice (so excuse me for my basic questions) but I ask you: when the machine is in operation, should I feel the air entering my nose? How can I center the holes exactly with the nostrils? It seems to me that they do not match. And in any case the mask, when I move during the night, moves often and I wake up. Again forgive me for these “beginner” questions. Thanks for the help e best wishes to you all.

Mask sizing is one of the most difficult tasks when just starting out. Whilst the mask may feel like it is sized correctly, many times they are too large or small for the individuals facial structure. If you received the mask kit with multiple sizes, try one the next size up or down to see how it works.
Also, watch some YouTube videos on mask sizing for your particular mask. LankyLefty27 has some of the better ones out there.
Also, please download and post your charts with OSCAR. The links in my signature for “Download OSCAR” and “Format OSCAR charts” will guide you through the process.
