Attaching the Nox Nasal Cannula
 Warning: The Nox nasal cannulas are single patient use. Using the same nasal
cannula on more than one patient poses a risk of cross-infection.
 Note: Medical tape can be used to hold the cannula against the cheeks to secure
the cannula in place if necessary.
 Note: The Nox nasal cannula with filter has a built-in hydrophobic filter and is the
preferred way to measure nasal airflow and snoring as it is designed to maximize
the signal quality and fits directly with the Nox A1 recorder. If it is preferred to use
a non-filtered Luer-lock cannula, it is necessary to use a filter tube connector from
Nox Medical to interface with the Nox A1 recorder.
Step 1
Place the nasal prongs gently in the nostrils. The prongs should point downwards inside the nostrils.
Step 2
Pull the cannula tubing over the ears and then position it under the chin.
Step 3
Slide the fastener snugly under the chin to hold the cannula tubing securely in place.
