ResMed CPAP Chin Strap

Arrived in packaging with the same name as the supplies I get from my insurance! Always an extra star for that IMHO, and will always earn me as a repeat customerLong strap adjusts to many head sizes, even my near-child-sized head. My doctor never brought this product up to me, so I was just curious to try it, and the pricing was reasonable. I had been getting more ingrown facial hairs and pseudofolliculitis around the area that the full face CPAP mask and straps touches my face, plus I was getting marks, so I had wanted to see if this would help. (Ultimately, what was most important was buying new headgear more frequently than insurance approves because the straps wear out and then I’d crank the straps down too tight to keep the mask on.)I don’t really use this anymore since I don’t always feel like adding an extra step to my night routine but I’m glad I did buy it. It does stay on and it does help with the issue that I did have. My mouth was also opening and leading to major air leaks and ineffective therapy delivery.Now that I’ve been on CPAP for about 18 months, I’ve gotten the learning curve down a bit more and learned how to adjust the equipment better and what’s important for a good seal. I still keep it in my medication bag in case I want to use it.It’s worth a try!

When I started CPAP treatment I'd wake up with my mouth open and the CPAP air coming out therefrom. Also detected by poor mask fit scores from the machine's monitoring. This strap works as advertised to keep my pie hole shut and the air in. Note that you'll want to add this to the list of CPAP bits that get a weekly cleaning.

This is not a Resmed brand chin strap. it is labeled on the package as Resmed "like" Dont buy this one it has poorely sewn rough seams that rub your face. Cant turn the other way as the rough edges of the elastic strap are sewn on what should the the outside but is smoother than the inside. Sending it on to Resmed. I dont think its right to say you are Resmed if you are not shame on you.

Having sleep apnea is something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. That said there is nothing less conducive to a good night sleep than being tethered to a CPAP machine and wearing uncomfortable gear. In my case I’m a mouth breather who won’t wear a full mask over my mouth and nose. Is the Resmed brand chin strap perfect? Not by a country mile, but it is the least obtrusive minimalist design I can find. I’ve tried taping my mouth, as well as using chin straps with multiple head crown bands to no avail. The material Resmed makes their straps from won’t chafe or heat up my skin like others do. Is it perfect? Absolutely not, but I haven’t found anything better just yet. I probably go through three or four of these chin straps in a year due to them eventually losing their elasticity.Make sure you buy the actual Resmed OEM brand.

This one just didn't work very well for me.

I have Obstructive Sleep Apnea and use a Bi-Pap machine and I have been looking for something that would help me to keep my mouth closed so I wouldn't keep getting dry mouth. And plus it's from the same Company that I got my machine from, so it's a win for me.

Note that this product is advertised as a “ResMed” product, but is actually made by a different company.

I received a genuine Resmed strap. Built well and works well. I have bought others similar, but they don't seem as well made and heavy duty as this strap. Chin portion I find comfortable and don't feel I need to put any thing on my chin first to stop marks. Holds well and I have not had a problem with slippage.I noted about checking supplier. Seems like there are negative reviews on this product based on people ordering and not getting a genuine Resmed strap, but rather a generic one. If you look, this seems to mainly one supplier doing this. Just avoid that supplier. The strap I received was genuine and sealed in the original Resmed package.Pleased.
