The efficacy of noninvasive ventilation is largely dependent on the reliable performance of patient interfaces. With the Performance Series, our goal is to offer the most comprehensive line of NPPV masks and circuits for EMS and critical care environments.
For example, by incorporating features like an adjustable forehead support, advanced cushion designs, enhanced head strap material in a broad array of styles and sizes – our patient interface selection is compatible with Respironics’ noninvasive therapy devices such as BiPAP®Vision® and Whisper Flow CPAP System.
An additional standard elbow (SE) feature makes selected Respironics masks compatible with all existing critical careventilators that operate in noninvasive modes, including Respironics' Esprit Critical Care Ventilator. The Performance Series is designed to help clinicians deliver effective treatment while providing patients’ increased comfort.
Respironics is a leading developer, manufacturer and distributor of innovative products and programs that serve the global sleep and respiratory markets.
