Resmed Masks with Magnets

Potential Magnetic Interference with Certain Medical Devices

In response to new information from latest industry practices and global safety data, ResMed is updating the Contraindications and Warnings in our User Guides to instruct patients on the safe use of ResMed masks with magnets.

  • Contraindications: conditions under which the mask is not to be used.
  • Warnings: identify a possible hazard and provide information on how to safely use the mask.

Please reference the links and information below to determine if your mask is affected. Contraindicated patients can avoid the potential harm from magnetic interference by using an alternative mask without magnets.
