CPAP

A Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine is a device used to treat sleep apnea, a condition where breathing temporarily stops or becomes shallow during sleep. It works by delivering a steady stream of pressurized air through a mask worn over the nose or mouth, keeping the airway open. This helps prevent breathing pauses, reduces snoring, and improves sleep quality. CPAP therapy is effective for many people with sleep apnea, allowing for restful sleep and reducing associated health risks. It’s a safe, non-invasive treatment that you wear at night.
