CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) Therapy
Obstructive sleep apnea, among other breathing disorders, is caused by episodes of airway collapse that block breathing. In CPAP therapy, a lightweight mask is placed over the nose while you sleep. The mask is attached to a small unit that provides continuous air pressure to the nasal passage. The forced air delivered by CPAP prevents the episodes of airway collapse by keeping the windpipe open, eliminating snoring, and providing a better, more restful night’s sleep. It is one of the most common and effective treatments for sleep apnea and can be used to treat sleeping disorders in adults and children.
What is a CPAP machine?
CPAP stands for continuous positive airway pressure. It’s a breathing therapy that uses a machine and mask to deliver air to the airways while you sleep. CPAP is primarily used to treat obstructive sleep apnea.
Why would I need CPAP therapy?
The forced air of the CPAP machine keeps your airways open so you can breathe better throughout the night and wake up feeling refreshed.
The use of a CPAP machine is suitable for both adult men and women and children who struggle to fall asleep or stay asleep because of loud snoring or gasping for breath. The sleep specialist offers both in-home and in-office sleep studies to confirm obstructive sleep apnea and determine if CPAP therapy is right for you.
What CPAP supplies are available?
Sleep Services of Maryland LLC offers durable medical equipment, including CPAP machines, parts, and at-home sleep study equipment to address obstructive sleep apnea and other conditions that interfere with good quality sleep.
In addition to providing the initial CPAP device, you can get replacement parts, such as replacement masks, filters, and tubing, when needed to keep your machine running optimally.
The Sleep Services of Maryland LLC team also works with you every step of the way – from your initial sleep apnea diagnosis to the setup of your machine. They provide extensive follow-up care to ensure your CPAP therapy is working well for you.
