Take A Breath
The asthma mask is a unique solution, designed to give the child mobility, comfort, independence and security. It differs in that it looks like a full-face diving mask, but with fabric straps for optimal comfort and avoiding uncomfortable pinching on the child's face.
Current masks on the market
The current form of mask is simply not good enough for what parents and children need. Since it is next to impossible for the parents to know how large a dose the child has received with the current spacer. Since the child must have 6 breaths of asthma medicine, but for them to be able to get it, the spacer needs to be 100% airtight all the time. If it leaks in the slightest, the parent may have to start over with the whole process and therefore make it impossible to know how much dose the child has received. This can lead to the child being overmedicated or undermedicated.
The Take a breath mask makes the whole process of medicating children with asthma easier and more comfortable.
The mask is based on a diving mask, which then means that it sits airtight on the child's face, so that you avoid having to hold it on the child, and therefore avoid over and under medication.
The mask is also designed with the children's interests in mind as the mask is made to make the children feel safe by looking like some of the things they know such as a dog, rabbit, cat or unicorn .
The mask is modular, which means that the individual parts can be replaced, so you don't have to change the entire mask if the child grows, or change the spacer when it needs it. This also makes it much easier to clean the mask.
