DreamWear Mask Fit Pack with Headgear

The Philips Respironics DreamWear Fit Pack is a hybrid CPAP mask designed to combine the benefits of a nasal mask and nasal pillows. The innovative design of the DreamWear mask grants users greater freedom of movement and a more comfortable, unencumbered sleeping experience.

The secret to the DreamWear's success is its unconventional hybrid nasal/nasal pillows design. The DreamWear remains fixed in position under the patient's nose like a traditional mask, but the seal with the patient's airway is more similar to a nasal pillows system. This minimal contact under the nose cushion helps prevent the discomfort, irritation and red marks patients can experience with more conventional CPAP masks. Unlike traditional nasal pillows or nasal masks, the hose tubing doesn't extend from the front of the face. Instead the pressurized air flows from the nostrils through broad-tubed channels flanking the patient's cheekbones before turning upward to terminate in the hose junction on top of the head.

DreamWear users claim (based off Philips User Preference Questionnaire) the DreamWear improves comfort and fit compared to their previous masks. Philips also touts that DreamWear users experience more freedom of movement throughout the night. Unrestricted by tubes around their neck and face, DreamWear patients can change sleeping positions easier, able to turn from their stomach, side and back with less worry about getting tangled up.
