headgear with arms

Sleep soundly

in our arms


You can find sound, restful sleep in our arms. Users reported DreamWear's innovative headgear with arms delivered a more secure fit and seal, and provided a satisfying quality of sleep when compared to our original headgear.3,6 This slip-resistant design is similar to eyeglasses’ arms. It holds your mask securely in place above, not touching, the ear with soft, flexible arms. DreamWear’s headgear with arms wrap you in comfort so you can just sleep, not worry about your mask moving causing leaks during the night.

Finding the right fit is easy

Fitting

The DreamWear mask with Nasal Cushion comes in four sizes to provide you with your best fit (small, medium, medium-wide and large), so you can find the fit that works best for you. This video will show how easy it is. Or follow the handy fitting guide instructions below.

Fitting Guide for DreamWear mask with Nasal Cushion

 

Using the nasal cushion sizing gauge (included with the mask or download at the link above), hold it horizontally under the nose. Select the cushion size based on where the outer edge of the nostrils and tip of the nose contact the gauge.

 

Note: Four cushion sizes (small, medium, large, medium-wide) are available.

 

Philips always recommends consulting a sleep or respiratory therapist in fitting a mask to ensure a proper size and fit.

Nasal: Step 1

Step 1

The cushion opening will be directly under the nostrils. The cushion will hug the nose and leak will be minimal.

 

Note: At no time should the nose be inside the cushion opening. If any part of the cushion overlaps the nose, the cushion is being worn incorrectly.

Nasal: Step 2

Step 2

With the mask assembled, place the cushion under the nose.

 

See Assembly instructional video above.

Nasal: Step 3

Step 3

Position the frame on the top of the head. Pull the headgear over the back of the head.

Nasal: Step 4, original headgear

Step 4

To adjust the mask, peel the headgear tabs away from the fabric. Adjust the straps length. Press the tabs back against the fabric to reattach.

 

Note: Do not overtighten the headgear.

Nasal: Step 5

Step 5

Position the mask until it fits comfortably. When finished, the elbow should rest at the top of the head.

Frequently asked questions

My headgear slips, how can I fix it?

We have enhanced our headgear for both the DreamWear Nasal and the DreamWear Silicone pillows masks with DreamWear headgear with arms.  It not only reduces slippage but also improves the overall stability of the mask.  See your favorite home healthcare equipment provider to purchase.

I have the updated slip resistant headgear with arms, do I need to buy a new mask?

The updated slip-resistant DreamWear headgear with arms will work with your current DreamWear Nasal or Silicone pillows mask. It connects to the existing loops on the mask frame. You do not need a new mask to use this headgear unless recommended by your homecare provider.

How do I know I am putting on the headgear with arms correctly?

For easy orientation note the L & R symbol on the arms. Loop the tab with the L symbol through the left side loop on the frame and R on the right side. Once correctly assembled the L&R symbols will face outwards, DreamWear logo on the fabric will be on the right & Philips Respironics logo will be on the back of the headgear. 

 

You can also watch the “how to size & assemble the mask” video on YouTube.

How do I clean my headgear with arms?

Weekly hand-wash the headgear with arms with a mild detergent / soap. Do not place the headgear into a clothes dryer. Follow the instruction for use manual for more details

I like my all fabric headgear, where can I get that?

The all fabric headgear is also available for use on DreamWear Nasal & Silicone Pillows mask, please contact your local homecare provider for more details.

My DreamWear mask leaks, how can I fix it?

DreamWear nasal comes in 3 frames & 4 cushion sizes.  If you are experiencing leaks with the mask, contact your local homecare provider to try a smaller frame and/or cushion size. ​

Additionally, we have also launched an updated slip resistant headgear with arms which may improve mask seal & overall stability.

Is it on DreamMapper?

All DreamWear masks are supported by the DreamMapper sleep apnea app.

Why is it that a person measures one size on the sizing gauge but works better with another size cushion?

The sizing gauge is a guideline to indicate which cushion to start with.  However, it is only a guideline and will never be 100% accurate.  It is always best to start with the size suggested by the gauge but then fit for comfort if another cushion and frame size combination works better for you.  ​

Philips Respironics now offers Mask Selector 3D and 2D tools.  Philips Respironics Mask Selector is rooted in science and data:

 

  • Pioneering tool for achieving CPAP mask personalization​
  • Proprietary software based on over 10 years of facial scanning research for mask design​
  • Mask type, sizing and fitting algorithm built upon a wide range of ethnicities and geographies​
  • Ask your home healthcare equipment provider if they are a certified provider of this service.

If a person lays on their side and closes off one side of the tubing, will the mask still provide therapy? Will it create a pressure spike?

The mask will continue to provide the prescribed therapy. Every other mask on the market operates with one tube running to the cushion and this mask operates in the same way. No increase of pressure or noise will occur. 

There are 3 sizes of frames. How do I choose the right size?

Always start with the medium frame. If the mask is too small, the frame will sit too close to the eyes. If the mask is too big, it will sit too close to the ears. Please refer to the quick start guide or instructions manual for pictures and a thorough description. In most cases, it will be obvious if a different size frame is needed. However, if there are leaks at night or the mask seems to move too much, a different size frame and/or cushion should be tried. 

How do I clean the mask?

If you remove the headgear, cushion and swivel, the frame is essentially one tube. This can be cleaned the same way the short tubing on other masks or the longer CPAP tubing is cleaned. Wash with warm soapy water, it can be rinsed through the swivel connection as well. Set to dry and if there happens to be any remaining moisture in the tube before therapy is started, connecting it to the CPAP with pressure can help to remove this.

 

The mask may also be cleaned in the dishwasher once a week. The non-fabric parts can be washed on the top shelf of the dishwasher and air dried. Please refer to the instructions manual that came with the mask.

How can you tell the difference between cushion and frame sizes?

The cushion indicator is on the front of the cushion next to the arrow that points to the arrow on the frame for the connection. The frame size indicator is on the top of the frame behind the elbow connection. 

Is there a sizing gauge in the bag?

The sizing gauge is included with the mask in the bag and is part of the Quick Start Guide that is attached to the mask on the elbow.
