The performance of a new mask (Mix-O-Mask) for giving supplementary oxygen in clinical situations was compared with three other methods in a patient with cor pulmonale. Measurements were made of the intra-tracheal gas concentrations and arterial blood levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The new mask was as reliable as Ventimasks in delivering a claimed oxygen concentration and did not cause rebreathing of expired air. The mask proved durable when worn for sixteen hours in a day and was preferred for comfort by the patient.
