Directions for Using the Oval Membrane with Baldus Nasal Masks:
Prepare the Membrane:
- Ensure that the oval membrane is clean and free from any debris or contaminants.
- If the membrane is reusable and autoclavable, follow the appropriate sterilization procedure before use.
Positioning the Membrane:
- Identify the oval-shaped membrane designed for the Baldus nasal mask.
- Hold the membrane with clean hands, ensuring that it is positioned correctly for the nasal area.
Mask Preparation:
- Ensure that the Baldus nasal mask is clean and in good condition.
- If using an inner mask, ensure it is securely fitted within the nasal mask before proceeding.
Membrane Attachment:
- Carefully align the oval membrane over the nasal area of the mask.
- Gently press down on the membrane to ensure a secure and proper fit.
- Ensure that the membrane covers the nasal area completely, without any gaps or folds.
Sealing and Adjustment:
- Verify that the membrane forms a tight seal around the nasal area, preventing air leakage.
- Adjust the mask straps or fasteners as needed to ensure a comfortable and secure fit.
Breathing and Comfort:
- Once the membrane is properly attached, breathe normally through the nasal mask.
- Ensure that there are no obstructions or discomfort during inhalation and exhalation.
Maintenance and Cleaning:
- After each use, remove the membrane from the nasal mask.
- If the membrane is reusable, follow the recommended cleaning and maintenance instructions.
- If autoclavable, sterilize the membrane using the appropriate method before reuse.
Replacement:
- Regularly inspect the membrane for signs of wear, damage, or deterioration.
- Replace the membrane as needed to maintain optimal performance and hygiene.
Storage:
- Store the membrane in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area when not in use.
- Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, heat, or harsh chemicals that may degrade the membrane material.
