Summary

This small pilot study tested whether custom 3D-printed masks could make sleep apnea treatment more comfortable for children. Researchers scanned children's faces to create perfectly fitted masks for their CPAP machines. The study measured if the custom masks were used more often and felt more comfortable than standard masks over six months.
