What is a CPAP machine?

A Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine is the most commonly prescribed device for treating sleep apnea disorders. Sleep apnea, such as the Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), is a common, yet often undiagnosed sleep disorder. People with OSA stop breathing during sleep periodically, because their airway collapses. Which can cause healthy sleep to be interrupted. Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) therapy is the non-invasive treatment of choice for OSA and can alleviate the symptoms of OSA.

CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) delivers gentle airflow to pressurize your airway to keep it open while you sleep. This allows CPAP users to sleep with few apneaic events (cessation of breathing) so they can get the restful, restorative sleep they need .  

CPAP machines have proven to be far more effective that oral appliances and other treatments for sleep apnea. They also pose fewer risks and are less invasive than surgery, which is generally only performed when all other options have been exhausted. 

CPAP machines are easy to use and certain models are even highly portable, like the Transcend 3 and 365 miniCPAPs. This makes them possible to be taken on the road, across the country and even on international flights, making CPAP therapy possible no matter where you are, and where you are going.
