Swift LT

Swift™ 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 CS ^TM 2 and VPAP ^TM 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.

Cleaning your Swift LT in the home

Notes:

• The nasal pillows system and headgear should be cleaned by handwashing.
• The headgear may be washed without being disassembled.

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.

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.

Reprocessing your Swift LT between Patients

The Nasal Pillows System should be reprocessed when used between patients. Cleaning, disinfection and sterilisation instructions are available from the ResMed website, www.resmed.com/masks/sterilization.

If you do not have Internet access, please contact your ResMed representative.

Storage

Ensure that your Swift LT is thoroughly clean and dry before storing it for any length of time. Store the mask in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.

Disposal

The Swift LT does not contain any hazardous substances and may be disposed of with your normal household refuse.

Reassembling your Swift LT

Troubleshooting

Possible reason Solution

Pillows won't seal properly, are uncomfortable or cause red marks

Pillows may have been fitted incorrectly, incorrectly adjusted, or the headgear is too tight.

Carefully follow instructions in "Fitting your Swift LT". Check headgear is not over-tightened. Check ResMed logo on top of pillows is facing outwards.

Inner wall position of one/both pillows is incorrect.

Squeeze pillow sides to release inner wall. The correct position is shown in "Reassembling your Swift LT".

Pillows are wrong size. Talk to your clinician.

Pillows may be dirty. Clean pillows according to instructions in “Cleaning your Swift LT in the Home”.

Nasal pillows system is too noisy

System is assembled incorrectly.

Reassemble the Swift LT. Make sure the pillows are fully inserted into the frame.

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.

- Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate an existing dental condition. If symptoms occur, consult your physician or dentist.

Technical specifications

Note: The mask system does not contain latex, PVC or DEHP materials.
