Thank you for choosing the Quattro FX/Quattro FX for Her. Please read the
entire manual before use.
Intended use
The Quattro FX/Quattro FX for Her channels airflow noninvasively to a patient
from a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bilevel device.

pressure has been prescribed

intended for single-patient re-use in the home environment and

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 valve should be replaced if it is
damaged, distorted or torn.
•
The vent holes must be kept clear.

This mask should only be used with CPAP or bilevel devices

Explanation: CPAP and bilevel devices are intended to be used
with special masks (or connectors) which have vent holes to allow
continuous flow of air out of the mask. When the device is turned on
and functioning properly, new air from the device flushes the exhaled
air out through the mask vent holes. However, when the device is not
operating, insufficient fresh air will be provided through the mask,
and the exhaled air may be rebreathed.Rebreathing of exhaled air
for longer than several minutes can, in some circumstances, lead to
