Description
Quick answer: This is the genuine ResMed Ultra Mirage NV (non-vented) nasal mask — a complete mask for ventilator use, not CPAP. It’s a nasal mask designed for ventilators with an active exhalation valve/port, helping optimize patient–ventilator synchrony for adults with acute or chronic respiratory distress or failure. Because it’s non-vented (no built-in vent holes), it must be used in a ventilator circuit that has a separate exhalation valve/port — the elbow is tinted blue to identify it as non-vented. It is not for CPAP/PAP therapy. Codes: Standard (60401), Large (60402), Shallow (60403).
⚠️ Important — this is a non-vented ventilator mask (not for CPAP)
- Non-vented = no built-in vent holes. For active-exhaust (active exhalation valve/port) non-invasive ventilator systems only. The ventilator circuit provides CO₂ washout (via a leak valve/port); the mask does not.
- Not for CPAP/PAP therapy. Using a non-vented mask on a standard CPAP without a proper exhalation path risks rebreathing exhaled CO₂.
- Blue elbow — ResMed tints the elbow blue to identify this as a non-vented mask.
- Clinician-directed — the ventilation setup, circuit, and exhalation device are determined by the clinical team.
- Oxygen safety — if supplemental oxygen is used, turn oxygen off when the ventilator isn’t running; no smoking near oxygen.

About this mask
The Ultra Mirage NV nasal mask is a more unobtrusive option for non-invasive ventilation (vs the full face NV), for long-term use at home or in hospital:
- Dual-wall cushion — a secure seal with a gentle touch; minimizes moisture trapped between skin and headgear.
- 360° rotating elbow (blue, non-vented) — stability and freedom of movement; standard 22 mm ventilator fitting.
- Quick-release headgear clips — fast, easy fitting and removal; set-and-forget once adjusted.
- Durable, hypoallergenic — latex-, PVC-, DEHP-free; tough materials for extended mask life.

Three configurations:
| Code | Configuration |
|---|---|
| 60401 | Standard |

Frequently asked questions
Is this a CPAP mask?
No. It’s a non-vented ventilator nasal mask for active-exhaust non-invasive ventilator systems. It is not for CPAP/PAP therapy.
Why is the elbow blue?
ResMed tints the elbow blue to identify the mask as non-vented. A non-vented mask has no vent holes, so the exhalation path must be provided by the ventilator circuit (a leak valve/port).
What do I need to use it safely?
A ventilator with an active exhalation valve/port (or a circuit that includes a leak valve/port for CO₂ washout), configured by the clinical team.
Which size should I choose?
Standard (60401), Large (60402), or Shallow (60403) — match to the patient’s facial profile per the fitting guide.
How is it different from the NV full face mask?
This is the nasal version (covers the nose only) — a more unobtrusive option. The NV full face (60648–60653) covers nose and mouth.
Do I need a prescription?
Yes — this is a clinician-directed ventilation mask. Contact us to confirm requirements.
How is it delivered?
Given the clinical nature of ventilation masks, please contact us to confirm availability and delivery options.
This is a non-vented mask for non-invasive ventilation with active-exhaust systems — not for CPAP therapy. It must be used with an exhalation valve/port for CO₂ washout, as configured by the clinical team. Follow oxygen-safety precautions and the mask’s clinical guide.
