If you have lived with a patient that has sleep apnea, you probably have seen a sleep apnea mask. The mask for sleep apnea is known as a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure or CPAP mask and is the common medical treatment for sleep apnea. The mask is actually only a part of the CPAP machine. The CPAP machine is made from tubes, humidifiers, and a ventilation device that all have certain functions to perform. The CPAP machine is intended to be used when conservative sleep apnea treatment methods fail to work. Wearing a CPAP mask during sleep is for long-term use, so it is important to be ready so that proper adjustments can be made by the patient and the people living with him. Here are some of the important concepts that must be missed when the patient is on a mask of this type.
