Hi, I am Jamie Roberts Leader and I am a registered polysomnographic technologist as registered with the Board of Registered Sleep Technologists (BRPT), a Clinical Sleep Educator (BRPT), Certified in Clinical Sleep Health (BRPT) and a Registered Sleep Technologist through the American Board of Sleep Medicine. During my foray into sleep medicine I have had the
opportunity to work with many companies setting up patients on CPAP
machines and was most recently the National Clinical Educator for a
CPAP mask manufacturer. While working with patients and their
mask issues, I realized there are needs that haven't been addressed.
These include but are not limited to SKIN BREAK DOWN, irritation and air leaks. Petroleum
based products could degrade the silicone masks. Lubricants
can cause leaks due to slippage.
This silicone
based compound is a moisture resistant
paste. It is slightly tacky so that the mask
seal stays in place. Sweat and humidity within the mask are no
match for this product. MaskMate also helps to seal with facial hair.
