Intended Use
The Mirage Micro channels airflow noninvasively to a patient from a positive airway pressure device such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bilevel system.
The Mirage Micro is:
•• to be used by adult 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.
Before Using the Mask
WARNINGS
•• The vent holes must be kept clear.
•• The mask should not be used unless the CPAP system is turned on and operating properly.
•• Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen.
•• Oxygen flow must be turned off when the flow generator is not operating, so that unused oxygen does not accumulate within the flow generator enclosure and create a risk of fire.
•• At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration varies, depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing pattern, mask, point of application and leak rate.
•• The technical specifications of the mask are provided for your clinician to check that they are compatible with the flow generator. If used outside specification or if used with incompatible devices, the seal and comfort of the mask may not be effective, optimum therapy may not be achieved, and leak, or variation in the rate of leak, may affect the flow generator function.
•• Discontinue using the Mirage Micro 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.
•• As with all masks, some rebreathing may occur at low CPAP pressures.

Cleaning the Mask at Home
Notes:
•• The mask and headgear should be cleaned by handwashing.
•• The headgear may be washed without removing the headgear clips.
WARNING
Do not use aromatic-based solutions or scented oils (eg, eucalyptus or essential oils), bleach, alcohol or products that smell strongly (eg, citrus) to clean any of the mask components. Residual vapours from these solutions can be inhaled if not rinsed thoroughly.They may also damage the mask, causing cracks.
CAUTION
•• If any visible deterioration of a mask component is apparent (cracking, crazing, tears etc.), the mask component should be discarded and replaced.
•• Avoid connecting flexible PVC products (eg, PVC tubing) directly to any part of this mask. Flexible PVC contains elements that can be detrimental to the materials of the mask, and may cause the components to crack or break.
Daily/After Each Use
To optimize the mask seal, facial oils should be removed from the cushion before use.
Handwash the mask by gently rubbing in warm (86°F/30°C) water using mild soap.
If the vent requires cleaning use a soft bristle brush.
Rinse all components well with drinking quality water and allow them to air dry out of direct sunlight. Do not soak the mask.
Weekly
Handwash the headgear in warm (approx. 86°F/30°C) water using mild soap.
Reprocessing the Mask between Patients
Only Sleep Lab Mask (SLM) variants of the mask are intended for multipatient re-use. When using between patients, these masks must be reprocessed according to cleaning and disinfection instructions available on ResMed.com/downloads/masks.

Merci d’avoir choisi le Mirage Micro™. |
Sur prescription uniquement |
Usage prévu
Le Mirage Micro achemine au patient de façon non-invasive le débit d’air produit par un appareil à pression positive tel qu’un appareil de PPC ou d’aide inspiratoire avec PEP. Le Mirage Micro est prévu:
•• pour une utilisation par des patients adultes (> 66 lb/30 kg) à qui une pression positive a été prescrite.
•• pour un usage multiple par un seul patient à domicile ou pour un usage multiple par plusieurs patients en milieu médical.
Avant d’utiliser le masque
AVERTISSEMENTS
•• Les orifices de ventilation ne doivent jamais être obstrués.
•• Le masque ne doit être porté que si l’appareil de PPC est sous tension et s’il fonctionne correctement.
•• Prendre toutes les précautions applicables lors de l’utilisation d’oxygène supplémentaire.
•• L’arrivée d’oxygène doit être fermée lorsque l’appareil n’est pas en marche afin d’empêcher l’oxygène inutilisé de s’accumuler dans le boîtier de l’appareil et de créer un risque d’incendie.
•• Lorsque de l’oxygène supplémentaire est délivré à un débit fixe, la concentration de l’oxygène inhalé varie en fonction des réglages de pression, de la respiration du patient, du masque, du point d’arrivée de l’oxygène ainsi que du niveau de fuites.
•• Les caractéristiques de votre masque sont fournies afin que votre clinicien puisse vérifier que celui-ci est compatible avec votre appareil. L’utilisation du masque
en dehors de ses caractéristiques ou avec des appareils incompatibles peut compromettre son étanchéité et son confort ainsi que l’efficacité du traitement, ou la variation du niveau de fuites peut affecter le fonctionnement de l’appareil.
•• Cesser d’utiliser le Mirage Micro en cas d’une QUELCONQUE réaction indésirable à l’utilisation du masque et consulter votre médecin ou votre spécialiste du sommeil.
•• L’utilisation d’un masque peut provoquer des douleurs dans les dents, les gencives ou la mâchoire ou aggraver un problème dentaire existant. Si des symptômes se manifestent, veuillez consulter votre médecin ou votre dentiste.
•• Comme c’est le cas avec tous les masques, une réinhalation peut se produire à une pression PPC basse.
