CPAP Therapy: How it Works
CPAP Therapy: How it Works, Getting Set up, & ResultsWhat is a CPAP and how do CPAP devices work?
What continuous positive airway pressure machines do is gently blow pressurized air through your airway at a constant pressure that keeps the throat from collapsing. CPAP machines are very basic and easy to use and are composed of three major parts:
CPAP motor- The CPAP motor is basically a small compressor. It draws in room temperature air and gently pressurizes it to deliver the perfect amount of air pressure that you need to clear your obstruction. The air intake portion of the machine has a replaceable filter that screens out particulates and impurities. Most newer CPAP machines also have a small water tank that, when turned on, heats up the water to provide moisture to the air you breathe in. These built-in humidifiers are ideal for people living in dry or arid climates and those that frequently wake with dry mouth, throat, or nasal cavities. CPAP machines are extremely quiet and barely register above a whisper.
CPAP Hoses- The hose is simply the delivery device that transports the pressurized air from the motor to the wearer’s mask. While most hoses are 6 feet in length, the diameter of the hoses can be different depending on the machine that one uses. Most hoses are now heated to reduce water condensation accumulation caused by the humidifiers.
CPAP masks for OSA
CPAP Mask- CPAP masks come in all shapes and sizes because not every individual will feel comfortable wearing the same masks as others. While sizes and shapes may vary to fit different shaped faces, there are typically three mask type variations to choose from nasal pillows, nasal masks, and full-face masks. Finding the right mask for your personal level of comfort is the most important part of CPAP compliance.
