What is a CPAP Hose Management System?

Answer 1

A CPAP Hose Management System is something very simple but very unique and effective for those who use CPAP. First of all CPAP is an acronym for Continious Positive Airway Pressure. It is probably the most commonly prescribed treatment for those who have obstructive sleep apnea. It works by blowing air from a device (CPAP) into flexible tubing attached to a mask or some sort of interface which blows this pressurized air into your nostrils, mouth or both. This action helps prevent the patients airway from closing while sleeping. One of the biggest problems with CPAP use, is the hose itself. CPAP user's who sleep with CPAP are very familiar with dealing with a CPAP hose. The hose is attached to a CPAP device typically on a nightstand adjacent to your bed, it typically extends over your chest feeding the mask that is attached to your face on the other end. If you want to change positions in bed, or roll over to one side or the other, you must also readjust your CPAP hose in the process. The CPAP Hose Management System or HoseBeGone's Patent Pending system allows any CPAP user to manage their hose above and behind their head while sleeping. It is lightweight, can disassemble for easy travel and fit in most any modern CPAP carry bags.
