Quattro
™
NON-VENTED FULL FACE MASK
Thank you for choosing the Quattro FX Non-Vented (NV) mask.
The Quattro FX NV channels airflow noninvasively to a patient with or without
supplemental oxygen.

Intended use

The Quattro FX NV is intended to be used with active-exhaust-valve ventilator
systems, to provide ventilatory assistance to patients with respiratory
insufficiency and respiratory failure.
The Quattro FX NV is:
• to be used by adult patients (> 66 lb/30 kg) requiring non-life-support
ventilatory assistance.
• intended for single-patient re-use in the home or multipatient re-use in the
hospital/institutional environment.
WARNING
• This mask must not be used without qualified supervision for patients
who are unable to remove the mask themselves.
• This mask is not for use on patients with impaired laryngeal reflexes
or other conditions predisposing to aspiration in the event of
regurgitation or vomiting.
• The mask should not be worn unless the ventilator system is turned
on and operating properly.
• At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow (if used), the inhaled
oxygen concentration will vary depending on the pressure settings,
patient breathing pattern, mask size selection and leak rate.
• If oxygen is used with the ventilator, the oxygen flow must be turned
off when the ventilator is not operating, so that unused oxygen does
not accumulate within the device enclosure and create a risk of fire.
• Discontinue using this mask if you have ANY adverse reaction to the
use of the mask, and consult your physician or sleep therapist.
• Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate an
existing dental condition. If symptoms occur, consult your physician
or dentist.
• Remove all packaging before using the mask.
• Ensure the soft sleeves are fitted at all times during use.
