Recently having multiple incidents with nrb (non-rebreather) masks having the bag pop out from under the green tape holding it in place.The bag is typically intact/not torn when it pops off the mask.It appears that the green securement tape is failing.Patients are typically on vapotherm when this happens, not sure if this is affecting the integrity of the securement tape.The mask information has been discarded in the majority of the reported events, but 3 lot numbers were identified (2 on same patient).Lot (10)201019, lot (10)210927 on this patient.Lot (10)211206 on another patient.Patients involved in the incidents have desaturated from the events, but recovered when new nrb applied.Not aware of any major adverse outcomes from events.8 total events reported involving 5 different patients.
