Within healthcare facilities, when there is the need to keep a patient in sedation in a prone position for long periods of time (for example during surgery, hospitalizations in intensive care for respiratory failure), face support devices that able to guarantee access to the airways are used. These masks are made of deformable materials in order to redistribute the load as uniformly as possible and avoid the formation of pressure wounds.
We have created an innovative multi-use mask that can facilitate the task of health workers and reduce the onset of bedsore.
