Valkion Question: Must you put a mask over child's mouth area

[Guest guest]

Is that the way a valkion works? If so my severe five year old with

autism won't do that. Like he won't do masking which requires putting a

mask over his face. Very stubborn and set in his ways. I need to know

because it's not worth it to buy if this is the case.

You do not use a mask, it's just a nasal cannula (plastic tubes with

little air nubbs that go slightly into the nose, wraps around the

ears then to the machine). You don't even need this if they do not

use it, just put it next to him as he sleeps.
