ABSTRACT:
A patient interface support that supports a patient interface of a PAP device and generates a pre-selected engagement pressure at the patient interface to create a seal between the patient interface and the patient's airflow passages when the interface support is in use while alleviating the strain on the patient's head. The patient interface support includes a base for attachment to a support surface; and, a support extension having a joint; a patient interface mount; and, biasing means. The joint movably connects the support extension to the base, the patient interface mount supports the patient interface, and the biasing means generates a pre-selected engagement pressure at the patient interface to create a seal between said patient interface and the patient's airflow passages when said interface support is in use.
