DocumentDocumentSwiftTM LT NASAL PILLOWS SYSTEM User Guide English English SwiftTM LT NASAL PILLOWS SYSTEM Thank you for choosing the Swift LT. Intended Use The Swift LT channels airflow noninvasively to a patient from a positive airway pressure device such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bilevel system. The Swift LT is: · to be used by adult patients (> 30 kg) for whom positive airway pressure has been prescribed · intended for single-patient re-use in the home environment and multipatient re-use in the hospital/institutional environment. Using the Swift LT When using the Swift LT with ResMed flow generators that have mask setting options, if available select `SWIFT'; otherwise select `MIRAGE' as the mask option. For a full list of compatible devices for this mask, see the Mask/Device Compatibility List on www.resmed.com on the Products page under Service & Support. If you do not have internet access, please contact your ResMed representative. Notes: · The Swift LT is not compatible for use with the ResMed AutoSet CSTM 2 and VPAPTM Adapt SV devices. · SmartStop may not operate effectively when using Swift LT with some flow generators that have this feature. · If you experience nasal dryness or irritation, use of a humidifier is recommended. 1 Parts of the Swift LT & Ordering Information Tube retainer 60586 Top buckle 60579 (1) 60580 (10) Back buckle 60558 (1) 60559 (10) Frame 60575 Headgear assembly 60578 Elbow Pillows 60571 (S*) 60572 (M*) 60573 (L*) Short tube assembly 60577 Swivel Complete system 60561 (includes small, medium and large pillows) S* Small; M* Medium; L* Large 2 English Fitting your Swift LT B 1 A2 (A) Hold the pillows at your nose; (B) pull the headgear over your head.

WARNING Do not use aromatic-based solutions or scented oils (eg, eucalyptus or essential oils), bleach, alcohol or products that smell strongly (eg, citrus) to clean any of the system's components. Residual vapours from these solutions can be inhaled if not rinsed thoroughly. They may also damage the system, causing cracks. 4 English CAUTION If any visible deterioration of a system component is apparent (cracking, crazing, tears etc.), the component should be discarded and replaced. Daily/After Each Use Handwash the separated mask components (excluding headgear) by gently rubbing in warm (approx. 30°C) water using mild soap or diluted dishwashing detergent for one minute. Rinse all components well with drinking quality water and allow them to air dry out of direct sunlight. Weekly Handwash the headgear and tube retainer in warm (approx. 30°C) water using mild soap or diluted dishwashing detergent. Rinse well and allow them to air dry out of direct sunlight.

Before using your Swift LT WARNINGS · The vent holes must be kept clear. · The mask should not be used unless the CPAP system is turned on and operating properly. · Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen. · Oxygen flow must be turned off when the flow generator is not operating, so that unused oxygen does not accumulate within the flow generator enclosure and create a risk of fire. · At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration varies, depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing pattern, mask, point of application and leak rate. · The technical specifications of the mask are provided for your clinician to check that they are compatible with the flow generator. If used outside specification or if used with incompatible devices, the seal and comfort of the mask may not be effective, optimum therapy may not be achieved, and leak, or variation in the rate of leak, may affect the flow generator function. · Discontinue using the Swift LT if you have ANY adverse reaction to the use of the mask, and consult your physician or sleep therapist. · As with all masks, some rebreathing may occur at low CPAP pressures. · Refer to your flow generator manual for details on settings and operational information. · Remove all packaging before using the mask. 7 Technical specifications Note: The mask system does not contain latex, PVC or DEHP materials.
