ASK
Thank you for choosing the Swift FX Nano / Swift FX Nano for Her.
Please read the entire manual before use.
Intended Use
The Swift FX Nano / Swift FX Nano for Her channels airflow
noninvasively to a patient from a continuous positive airway pressure
(CPAP) or bilevel device.
The Swift FX Nano is:
to be used by patients >66 lb (30 kg) for whom positive airway
pressure has been prescribed
intended for single-patient re-use in the home environment and
multipatient re-use in the hospital/institutional environment.
GENERAL WARNINGS
The vent holes must be kept clear.
The mask should only be used with CPAP or bilevel devices
recommended by a physician or respiratory therapist.
The mask should not be used unless the device is turned on.
Once the mask is fitted, ensure the device is blowing air.
Explanation: CPAP and bilevel devices are intended to be
used with special masks (or connectors) which have vent
holes to allow continuous flow of air out of the mask. When
the device is turned on and functioning properly, new air
from the device flushes the exhaled air out through the mask
vent holes. However, when the device is not operating,
insufficient fresh air will be provided through the mask, and
the exhaled air may be rebreathed. Rebreathing of exhaled
air for longer than several minutes can, in some
circumstances, lead to suffocation. This applies to most
models of CPAP or bilevel devices.
Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen.
