User Note: The Wisp Nasal Mask is designed to give a good seal without being too tight on your face—don’t over-tighten the headgear. Wearing the slightly looser mask will increase comfort without compromising function. The mask cushion is designed to create an optimal seal with minimal pressure, ensuring comfortable therapy throughout the night.
Multiple Frame Options
The Philips Respironics Wisp nasal CPAP mask frame comes with two exceptional frame options designed to meet diverse patient preferences and support effective sleep apnea therapy.
The innovative fabric frame option features a unique reversible design with both a silky side and a soft side, allowing you to customize your comfort experience. This fabric frame is particularly popular among users with sensitive skin or those who prefer a softer touch against their face. The lightweight fabric frame construction ensures the mask remains comfortable throughout extended therapy sessions.
Alternatively, the clear silicone mask frame offers a traditional aesthetic while providing the same secure, reliable fit. Both the fabric mask frame and clear frame options utilize the same proven geometry developed by Philips Respironics to ensure optimal seal and comfort.
Diverse Cushion Sizing
Say goodbye to “one size fits all” CPAP masks that never give you the perfect fit you need. The Wisp Mask allows you to choose between three cushion sizes, giving you a custom fit that will greatly enhance your comfort.
The cushion itself is a lightweight, small nose piece, available in sizes small/medium, large, and extra-large. Each cushion is engineered with soft silicone material that conforms to your unique facial contours for a personalized seal.
Even if you have used nasal pillow masks in the past with no success, the Wisp mask offers a more modern alternative with superior comfort and is definitely worth trying. Unlike traditional nasal pillow masks, the Wisp provides broader cushion options for a more customized fit.
Improved Design for Minimal Interference
Most CPAP masks have a bulky forehead support feature that obstructs your field of view and makes it difficult to get comfortable. The Wisp has no such forehead support and instead wraps around the side of your face, sitting both above and below the ears for added support and comfort. This streamlined design means you have a clear field of vision, which allows you to watch TV or read more easily without an unobstructed view, and quickly find a comfortable sleeping position to relax into.
The Wisp mask comes with a strap that goes across the top of your head for stability and innovative magnetic headgear clips that make removal and reattachment quick and effortless throughout the night.
Easy Cleaning
Cleaning the Wisp mask has never been easier thanks to a lightweight, flexible short tube that is easily disconnected. Regular maintenance is crucial for optimal CPAP performance and hygiene, and the Philips Respironics Wisp nasal CPAP mask design makes daily cleaning simple.
To clean your Wisp nasal mask, simply disconnect it from your CPAP device using the magnetic headgear clips for quick removal. Gently wash the nasal cushion with warm water and mild soap, paying special attention to the cushion surface where facial oils accumulate. The cushion should be cleaned daily to maintain a proper seal and hygiene. The mask frame and magnetic headgear clips can be wiped down with a damp cloth as needed.
The Philips Respironics Wisp CPAP mask comes packaged with the tube you need for quick, easy, and effective cleaning. Allow all components to air dry completely before reconnecting.
FAQs
Does this mask replace any current/discontinued models?
Yes, the Philips Respironics Wisp nasal mask replaces the Comfort Classic Mask. If you're transitioning from the Comfort Classic or considering a different mask style, the Wisp nasal CPAP mask offers improved comfort features, including magnetic headgear clips and better nasal cushion options that work seamlessly with your CPAP machine.
Is there a “standard” size that works for most people out of the three cushion sizes?
Yes, most people use the small/medium size with the Wisp nasal mask. When you order the Philips Respironics Wisp nasal CPAP mask, this cushion comes attached and ready to connect to your CPAP machine. Your mask will also come with both the petite and large options—just switch either of these in if you want to try a different fit. The Wisp headgear works with all cushion sizes without requiring adjustment.
How often should I replace the mask cushion?
For optimal performance and hygiene with your Philips Respironics Wisp nasal mask, the nasal cushion should be replaced every 3-6 months, or sooner if you notice any deterioration, discoloration, or loss of seal.
Regular replacement of the cushion ensures your Wisp nasal CPAP mask continues to provide an effective seal when connected to your CPAP machine. A worn nasal cushion can compromise therapy effectiveness and cause discomfort around the nose bridge area.
