Mask fitting is an essential element of a sleep apnea patient's success with positive airway pressure therapy because it affects compliance, treatment efficacy, and possible side effects. Demands on mask stability increase as pressure increases. Higher pressures often result in air leak and patient discomfort, and certain CPAP masks will not perform as well as others.
Most CPAP accessories require tighter CPAP headgear at higher pressures, and tightening may cause pressure sores. Some CPAP accessories such as nasal and full face CPAP masks have become very popular among clinicians and patients because of their stability and comfortable design, which performs well without tight CPAP headgear, even at high pressures.

CPAP Masks
CPAP therapy can be hard to adjust for some sleep apnea patients. In order to adjust to CPAP therapy with maximum comfort, it is recommended to choose a CPAP mask that will be both effective and comfortable. CPAP masks come in 2 main shapes – nasal CPAP masks and full face CPAP masks. However, there are some CPAP masks that offer nasal pillow system that allows it to be placed only upon the patient's nostrils.
