Resuscitation Masks

The Fisher & Paykel Healthcare resuscitation masks for neonates and infants are available in five different sizes to fit a range of patients.

International guidelines recommend that an appropriately sized face mask should cover the mouth and nose but not the eyes, and should not overlap the chin.^1,2 Careful consideration needs to be given to mask size, fit and hold as a good seal with minimized leak is important for establishing effective ventilation.

Resuscitation mask product features

The resuscitation mask range by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare includes masks of 35mm and 42 mm diameter, which are amongst the smallest masks currently available on the market.

Research shows that 35-millimeter-diameter masks are most suitable for infants younger than 29 weeks’ gestational age, while masks with a 42-millimeter diameter are recommended for infants between 27 and 33 weeks’ gestational age.³

Fisher & Paykel Healthcare’s resuscitation masks can be used with a self-inflating bag, a flow-inflating bag or a T-piece circuit. The masks are designed to be soft and pliable, with a transparent surface that allows breath condensate to be observed.
