The Fisher & Paykel Nova Micro Mask
The Fisher & Paykel Nova Micro mask is a nasal pillow CPAP mask specifically designed to treat sleep apnea. Renowned for its compact and lightweight build, it prioritizes comfort without sacrificing performance.
The Fisher & Paykel Nova Micro mask is an excellent option for patients who tend to breathe primarily through their nose and have great difficulty obtaining an adequate fit with standard under-the-nose nasal masks. In addition, its minimalistic design really fits well for those patients who tend to be claustrophobic or feel trapped with the more standard, larger nasal or pillow masks.
