Abstract
Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is commonly used to treat various respiratory conditions including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Several side effects related to the use of nasal CPAP are described in the literature. The side effects can cause patients to discontinue this effective therapy. We report 2 patients who used nasal CPAP for several years for the treatment of OSA and developed irritant contact dermatitis (ICD) from a CPAP nasal mask.
