CPAP
CPAP stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. CPAP
devices are the usual treatment recommended for sleep apnea. A CPAP is
a small box that works by using a quiet fan, humidification chamber,
and filter to create the optimal relief to nasal passages during sleep.
The device delivers relief through flexible hosing and a mask. The
mask is key to how successful the device is for the patient and should
be well fitted and comfortable.
