I thought I would ask this because, it would be good for people to compare masks.
Also for new people to know what is good to get.
I am getting my sleep study Wednesday. If I have to get equipment, and have any say in what equipment I get, what's best? And what type of mask is preferable?
If during the sleep study, they mask you , ask for the mask -- especially if it works well for you.
I use the swift nasal pillow system as well as a PF 407 nose mask. I switch between the two as the nasal pillows are taking some time to get use to and make considerable more noise then the PF 407.
I didn't do this, but several people also suggest bringing alone your pillow, to test as close to the environment your sleeping in.
Best of Luck!
