The Resmed AcuCare F1-4 is a hospital-use vented full-face mask designed for non-invasive ventilation (NIV) therapy. It is intended for single-patient use for up to seven days for individuals weighing over 30 kg who have been prescribed positive airway pressure therapy. The mask features form-fitting headgear and cushion technology to provide stability and a secure seal, facilitating the delivery of respiratory support in a clinical setting.
Vented Mask Design: Features a built-in anti-asphyxia valve (AAV) for leak ventilation, suitable for single-limb circuits.

Flexible Application: It is designed to be compatible with common breathing circuits used in hospitals and can be used without a vented circuit.
Short-Term Hospital Use: Intended for a single patient for a duration of up to 7 days, which helps manage hygiene and reduces the risk of cross-infection.
