What is Sleep Apnea and who does it affect?
Sleep apnea is a serious condition in which breathing stops and starts during sleep. It can happen many times during a sleep cycle and is usually associated with snoring. Gone undetected/treated, the amount of oxygen delivered to the brain becomes decreased. Sleep apnea is believed to affect up to 4% of adults.
What are the common symptoms of sleep apnea?
Sleep apnea symptoms are most commonly obesity, feeling tired after even having enough hours of sleep at night, frequently waking up during the night time for no reason, snorting or gasping for air during sleep, memory/concentration issues and daytime sleepiness. Very often cpap's can help prevent these problems from happening.

What is Cpap?
A commonly used abbreviation for continuous positive airway pressure, which is used to relieve the obstruction in the oropharynx in patients with OSA.
What is the history behind Cpap treatment?
For over 50 years, cpap has been in use. In 1981, Sullivan and associates described the use of a nasal mask so that CPAP could be applied more conveniently and comfortably. They first used nasal CPAP to treat obstructive sleep apnea, whereby the air pressure acts as a pneumatic splint to prevent pharyngeal collapse during sleep. NasalCPAP is now widely used at home for this indication.
How can Cpap treatment help?
If you suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, Cpap treatment may be for you. With Cpap treatment, you wear a snugly fitting nasal mask connected to a cpap machine. The cpap machine and mask allow you to breath freely by blowing air into the nostrils to keep the airway passages open during sleep.
Where can I get a Cpap machine?
Before engaging in any type of treatment for sleep apnea, most importantly cpap treatment, you must consult your doctor and have a valid prescription for a cpap machine. Your doctor will inform you as to what is the best treatment and may recommend using a cpap machine. You can then use our site to find the cpap machine, cpap mask and cpap accessories that are right for you. Once you place your order, simply fax your prescription to us toll free at: 1-800-870-3712.
