	Full face diving mask - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A full-face diving mask is a type of diving mask that seals the whole of the diver's face from the water and contains a mouthpiece or demand valve that provides the diver with breathing gas.
		Full face masks can be more secure than breathing from a independent mouthpiece; if the diver becomes unconscious or suffers an oxygen toxicity convulsion, the diver can continue to breathe from the mask unlike a mouthpiece which must be always gripped between the teeth.
		Most full-face masks can be knocked off much less easily than an ordinary scuba mouthpiece or an ordinary mouth-and-nose diving mask; but an excess of bulky projecting valvework may act as a lever for his head to be pushed around by.

	Respironics, Inc., Caradyne, CPAP Clinical Papers
		Mask CPAP may also be indicated in cardiogenic pulmonary edema in the presence of hypercarbia, if the patient has a normal ventilatory drive.
		Mask CPAP is also effective in alleviating atelectasis and has the advantage of not requiring patient cooperation to increase lung volume.
		Mask CPAP can be a useful technique for improving oxygenation, alleviating tachypnea, and reducing the need for endotracheal intubation.

	Mouth-To-Mask Rescue Breathing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		When used correctly, mouth-to-mask rescue breathing provides the same tidal volume as mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing, and is easier to use and provides larger tidal volumes than the bag-valve-mask technique, since both hands of the rescuer can be used to maintain airway patency and a secure mask fit.
		However, most masks cannot be used during one-rescuer CPR because they require the rescuer to perform rescue breathing using a jaw thrust maneuver while positioned at the top of the victim's head.
		The major difference between the masks is their compactness for carrying and storage, and the required positioning of the rescuer during the use of the mask.

	Breathing mask patent invention
		The outer face mask includes a basin-shaped intermediate wall which extends from the inside of the outer face mask and which has a free end, a con-cave side, which is intended to embrace and lie in abutment with the wearer's chin part, and a convex side.
		The breathing mask is connected by a hose or the like to a source of breathing gas, typically a container in which the gas is contained under high pressure.
		The full breathing mask includes a wall 21 which is situated distal from a wearer when the mask is donned and which is common to both the outer face mask 1 and the inner face mask 11.

	Patent 5,875,775
		The improvement to the basic mask construction is a breathing adaptor provided on the interior side of the mask face, which encloses a one-way respirator.
		The breathing adaptor maintains the mouth and nose spaced apart from the filter, and efficiently directs breathing efforts to equalize inhalation airflow via substantially all of the filter, while the one-way valve eases exhalation airflow and reduces condensation on the interior side of the visor.
		breathing adaptor means comprising a flexible material within the mask interior enclosing at least the mouth and maintaining spaced apart therefrom a one-way respirator and the filter, said breathing adaptor means providing uniform inhalation airflow via substantially all of the filter, while easing exhalation airflow via said one-way respirator.

	Mask Removal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		If the mask is accidently dislodged during a dive (and anyone who dives much will experience that)or when removing it to fix a broken strap, divers will be thankful to have practiced mask removal and replacement until it's second nature.
		The solution to this unpleasant scenario is to practice removing the mask and breathing underwater for at least a minute at a time, until the diver can do it without altering their breathing rate and pattern.
		The key to removing and replacing the mask easily and calmly underwater is to maintain a normal breathing pattern and move slowly and deliberately.

	Breathing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Do not assume that a person's breathing has stopped merely because the person is unconscious or has been rescued from water, from poisonous gas, or from contact with an electric wire.
		Breathe slowly, using the procedures for mouth-to-mouth breathing.
		Proper positioning of the mask is critical because gaps between the mask and the face will result in air leakage.

	Breathing mask may benefit patients with exercise-induced asthma
		A special heat exchange mask that limits the amount of cold air entering the airways may benefit people who suffer from exercise-induced asthma, say US researchers.
		Drs David Beuther, from the University of Colorado in Denver, and Richard Martin, from the National Jewish Medical Research Center in Denver, claim that the mask is at least as effective for preventing breathing difficulties as inhaling airway-opening medications before exercise.
		The researchers therefore tested the effectiveness of a new heat exchange mask, which works by using heat and moisture trapped in densely folded plastic material to warm the air as they inhale, among 15 patients with asthma.

	How does the BreathXchange Mask work
		The BreathXchange mask contains a lightweight thermal conversion module that captures the vapor that is typically expended in the normal course of breathing.

		The entire mask and heat exchange module can be machine washed in cold water on the gentle cycle and line dried.

	FAQ
		The breathing valve has two contradictory functions: drop the pressure to a comfortable pressure level for breathing, but also be able to deliver large volumes of air instanteously.
		The result is the same but the difference is clear: with ours the supply from cylinder to mask remains secure, clean and air tight, but with the others the “weak link in the chain” is broken, and you’ve got to restore that critical link in order to restore a reliable source of air.
		If that second stage breathing valve is banged or contaminated while dangling down by your waist (c’mon, no one uses the belt holster), there’s no assurance that it will seal properly to the mask or supply clean air at the proper rate.

	SCBA
		This is, air pressure that is supplied to the breathing mask should have higher pressure than the outside atmospheric pressure.
		The higher pressure makes it easier to breathe, and if the mask seal around the face begins to gap the positive pressure should keep outside gasses from entering the mask.
		It is usually harder to breathe and if the mask gaps you will bring in outside smoke into the mask.
