Intended Use

The Quattro Air is a noninvasive accessory used for channeling airflow
(with or without supplemental oxygen) to a patient from a positive airway
pressure (PAP) device such as a continuous positive airway pressure
(CPAP) or bilevel system.
The Quattro Air is:
• to be used by patients (weighing >30 kg) for whom positive airway
pressure therapy has been prescribed
• intended for single-patient reuse in the home environment and
multipatient reuse in the hospital/institutional environment.

GENERAL WARNINGS

• The mask must be used under qualified supervision for users who
are unable to remove the mask by themselves. The mask may not
be suitable for those predisposed to aspiration.
• The elbow and valve assembly have specific safety functions. The
mask should not be worn if the valve is damaged as it will not be
able to perform its safety function. The elbow should be replaced
if the valve is damaged, distorted or torn.
• The vent holes must be kept clear.
• The mask should only be used with CPAP or bilevel devices
recommended by a physician or respiratory therapist.
• The mask should not be used unless the device is turned on. Once
the mask is fitted, ensure the device is blowing air.
