CPAP Machines
When you have sleep apnea, you can stop breathing, briefly, up to 30 times or more an hour this is when your airways close or get blocked. CPAP, short for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, pushes air into them to keep them open.
The machine has a pump that controls the airflow, a tube that carries the air from the machine to you, and a mask that goes over your mouth, nose, or both. There are many options to consider and different packages available for all you Sleep Apnea Needs
Masks and Straps
If you’ve never slept with something on your face, it’ll probably take some time for you to wear the CPAP mask without thinking about it.
Most modern ones fall in one of three groups:
- A nasal mask that goes over your nose
- A "nasal pillow mask" that fits under your nose
- A full mask, which covers your mouth and nose
Among those three main types, there are kinds including:
- Full-face masks that go over your eyes as well
- Nose masks with prongs that go into your nose
As long as the mask is sealed enough so that the air pressure from the tube stays constant, the CPAP will do its job. It’s up to you to find out which type is most comfortable on your face, and which straps are best to hold it in place. You may have to try a few different types before you find one you like.
Oral Appliances
Oral appliances can work wonders for people with sleep apnea. These devices are far more comfortable than wearing a mask, they’re portable so you can take them with you while traveling, and you can talk and drink water while wearing one. And, of course, they don’t involve surgery. Lets have a look and see what Oral Appliance suits your Sleep Apnea needs.
Sleep Aids
You’ll find many types of pillows to relieve sleep apnea. They're designed for use with a CPAP machine or without. They come in different styles, including a wedge shape, which raises your upper body.
Sleeping on your back with your body elevated from the waist up may help keep your airway from collapsing and, in turn, improve your condition.
