CPAP or we can
say that Continuous positive airway pressure Therapy is used to diagnose the
Sleep Apnea disorder. For mild Sleep Apnea, therapist never uses CPAP Therapy
but for the obstructive sleep apnea it became a necessity. CPAP is nothing but
just a small machine that supplies a constant and steady air pressure, a hose,
and a mask or nose piece. Sometimes, due to some reason, the CPAP equipment
creates a problem such as:-
1. Wrong size CPAP Mask:-
A numerous of CPAP masks are available in the
market that are of distinctive sizes. If you randomly choose your CPAP mask
then maybe it doesn't fit to your need and requirement. For example there are
many shops of CPAP Toronto from where you can easily purchase your
suitable CPAP Mask with consult of Doctor.
2. Low air
pressure:-
CPAP mask
provides a low air pressure, followed by an automatic and gradual increase in
the pressure to your prescribed setting as you fall asleep. This low air
pressure is difficult to inhale that leads to trouble. So, ask your Doctor to
increase its pressure or replace the mask.
3. Dry Nose:-
The heated
humidifier of CPAP is connected with the air pressure machine whose level can
be adjusted. IF your mask leaks, it can cause dry nose. So, always use a nasal
spray before CPAP device.
For the proper treatment of obstructive sleep apnea, adjustable and
comfortable CPAP device is very essential.
