September 30 2024 - 8:10AM
ResMed (NYSE: RMD, ASX: RMD), the world’s leading health technology
company focused on sleep, breathing, and care delivered in the
home, today announced a ResMed first in CPAP (continuous positive
airway pressure) mask innovation with the launch of the
AirTouch™ N30i. Designed to create a natural and
comfortable sleep experience for users, the AirTouch N30i is a
fabric-wrapped frame featuring a soft, breathable, and
moisture-wicking design for optimal comfort in a tube-up design.
Sleep apnea affects more than 54 million people in the United
States and nearly one billion people worldwide1. This chronic
sleep-related breathing disorder can impair daily functioning and
significantly increase the risk of serious comorbidities such as
hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke2.
Innovative AirTouch N30i Designed to Deliver Exceptional
Comfort for a More Natural Sleep Experience
As a global leader in sleep health, ResMed designs life-changing
health technologies that people love, including the AirTouch N30i,
designed to make it easier for people to start and stick with CPAP
therapy. Building upon ResMed’s innovation and experience in
developing high-performance masks, the AirTouch N30i combines
softness, breathability, and a high-performance seal to deliver
exceptional comfort in a nasal mask.
In a multi-center study with experienced CPAP users, 92.6%
preferred AirTouch N30i for long-term use, and 96.7% rated AirTouch
N30i appealing or very appealing for its look and feel3.
