Cannula Comfort Cushions™
Increased frequency of conditions such as Dyspnea, Asthma, and COPD have brought to light the unfortunate side effects of oxygen tube use. Patients that require long-term usage of oxygen through a nasal cannula often suffer from irritation, creases, and grooves in their skin.
When the soon-to-be inventor of Cannula Comfort Cushions™ became an oxygen user, he learned first-hand of the unsightliness and discomfort caused from his oxygen tubes. Finding no commercial solution to his problem, he sought to develop a solution himself. Cannula Comfort Cushions™ provide a skin-friendly layer of protection that allows patients to comfortably wear oxygen tubing for long durations without pain, irritation, or indentations.
Oxygen Cannula and Face Mask
Crease Prevention
Designed to provide protection from creases and improved tube support, it prevents tube collapse and roll – a critical safety precaution – and lets you sleep comfortably.
- Flexible
- One size fits all
- Protects your face from tube imprints
In much the same way a snow ski helps the skier glide across the surface of a mountain, Cannula Comfort Cushions™ widen the surface that meets the skin to prevent deep lines left by nasal cannula tubing. All users of nasal oxygen will benefit from using the Cannula Comfort Cushions™. The product is constructed of a medical grade silicone that has been thoroughly tested.
Oxygen Therapy through the Nasal Cannula
Supplemental oxygen therapy is a clinical intervention that helps patients with hypoxia, a medical condition typically associated with COPD, Dyspnea, Asthma, and Lung Fibrosis. Oxygen supplementation is often applied through nasal cannula oxygen tubing to provide a steady supply of oxygen
Cannula Comfort Cushions™ Work
We combined our clinical and technical expertise to create unique padding for nasal cannula that provides comfort and protection.
Medical Grade Silicone
Well-known biocompatibility profile, compatible both with skin and nasal cannula material.
Easy Mounting
Making Cannula Comfort Cushions™ a perfect fit to any standard width nasal oxygen tubing for patients.
Skin-Friendly
We designed these cannula pads to aid in preventing irritation associated with the long-term application of oxygen through the nasal cannula.
Three Steps for Irritation-Free Oxygen Supply
Placement
Lay nasal cannula tube on a flat surface with the nasal barbs pointing toward the user. The curvature of the barb should be facing downward. Place one of the cushions under the tube with its groove facing up. Ensure the cushion is about 3/4'' away from the nasal barb.
Oxygen Flow
Press the cannula tube into the groove of the nasal cannula padding and start the oxygen flow with the cannula placed on the face.
Replacement
Cannula Comfort Cushions™ have an expected life of 90 days. When the time comes to replace the oxygen cannula, Cannula Comfort Cushions™ can be re-used simply by removing it from the old cannula and applying it to the new one following the same steps described above.
For Use with Face Masks
To use cushions with a face mask, place the mask on face, then tuck cushions under the elastic straps and insert them into the cushion's groove.
