ResMed Introduces AirFit™ N20 and AirFit F20 CPAP Masks: A New Standard for Fit and Comfort

ATLANTA, Nov. 1, 2016

The AirFit N20 and AirFit F20 feature ResMed's innovative new InfinitySeal silicone cushion that adapts to the unique facial contours of each patient to increase comfort, improve fit and reduce leakage for maximum treatment efficacy. Hard-to-fit masks affect sleep specialists and patients alike, so with the new AirFit 20 series, ResMed has taken one of its most popular mask features – magnetic clips, which make the headgear easier to get on and off – and introduced them on its full face model.

Testing shows the AirFit N20 fit an astonishing 99 percent of patients tested, and the AirFit F20 fit an impressive 97 percent – regardless of facial structure, gender or age.^1–5

"These new masks address two of the biggest catalysts for effective sleep apnea treatment: fit and comfort," said ResMed CEO Mick Farrell. "Patients rate mask comfort as the number one reason that can help them stay on therapy. Not only are the F20 and N20 our most comfortable masks ever, they're easier and faster for clinicians to fit on patients the first time, helping more people suffering from sleep apnea adhere to this life-changing therapy."

The masks are part of ResMed's Air Solutions connected care portfolio, complementing its best-selling, cloud-enabled Air10^TM flow generator devices and myAir^TM and AirView^TM monitoring tools that are proven to help improve patients' CPAP use.

The new ResMed AirFit 20 masks will be shown publicly for the first time in the U.S. at the Medtrade Fall medical industry conference in Atlanta, October 31–November 3, 2016. Visit ResMed's Booth #1511.

ResMed plans to make the AirFit F20 and AirFit N20 available in the U.S. this quarter. The launch is subject to clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Both masks are currently being rolled out in EMEA and Asia-Pacific.
