What device is worn by a person with sleep apnea-?
It's called a CPAP machine. A portable device that helps the air flow...Has a little mask that goes over face. I've also heard of similar IPAP and BI-Pap machines. Truly the best cure typically is weight loss-but of course that isn't the cause of sleep apnea in all cases. http://www.webmd.com/sleep-disorders/sleep-apnea/continuous-positive-airway-pressure-cpap-for-obstructive-sleep-apnea
What does 'sleep apnoea full face mask' mean?
It is a type of face mask. A CPAP machine is used to provide air to people with sleep apnea -- it forces air into their lungs so they don't stop breathing. You have a choice of one that just fits into the nostrils, one that fits over the whole nose, or one that fits over both nose and mask -- the last one is the full face mask. You wear these while sleeping with a CPAP machine running.
What factors should I consider when choosing a CPAP machine for Sleep Apnea?
Choosing the right CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machine for sleep apnea is crucial for effective treatment. Here are key factors to consider: 1. Type of CPAP Machine There are different types of CPAP machines: **Standard CPAP—**Provides a fixed air pressure throughout the night. Auto-CPAP (APAP) – Adjusts air pressure based on your breathing needs. BiPAP (Bi-Level PAP) – Provides different pressure levels for inhalation and exhalation, ideal for users with higher pressure requirements. 2. Pressure Settings Your doctor will prescribe the necessary pressure settings. If you need variable pressure, an Auto-CPAP might be a better choice. 3. Mask Type and Fit The right mask is essential for comfort and effectiveness. Common options include: Nasal Masks – Cover only the nose; suitable for most users. Full-Face Masks – Cover the nose and mouth; ideal for mouth breathers. Nasal Pillow Masks – Small inserts that fit into the nostrils; best for those who want minimal facial contact. 4. Humidification Feature Many CPAP machines come with built-in humidifiers to prevent dryness and irritation in the airways. If you experience nasal congestion or dry throat, choose a machine with an integrated humidifier. 5. Noise Level Look for a CPAP machine with a low noise level for a better sleeping experience. 6. Portability and Size If you travel frequently, consider a lightweight, portable CPAP machine for convenience. 7. Data Tracking and Connectivity Some CPAP machines offer smart features like Bluetooth connectivity, sleep tracking, and remote monitoring, allowing you to track progress efficiently. 8. Budget and Rental Options CPAP machines can be an investment, but rental options make them more affordable. Healthy Jeena Sikho offers CPAP machines for both rent and purchase to suit different budgets. Selecting the right CPAP machine depends on your prescribed pressure settings, comfort needs, and lifestyle. Make sure to explore different models and consult professionals to find the best option for you.
Does anyone make reading glasses to fit with cpap machine?
If you use a full face mask (mouth and nose), you won't be able to use reading glasses. You may have better luck if you can tolerate a nasal mask or nasal pillows.
What is a CPAP Hose Management System?
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.

Can the CPAP machine cause your stomach to be bloated and hard?
Yes. It is called aerophagia, the condition in which a person swallows too much air into the stomach. It can cause bloating and discomfort, and can result in feeling like you ate a huge meal and need to burp.When air is pumped into your nose and mouth, there is a chance that you're going to swallow it. Air will go down your esophagus and into your stomach, instead of your trachea and into your lungs.If your trachea isn't opened, then you can't handle the amount of pressure being delivered by the CPAP machine, causing the overflow to push into the esophagus.This could be resolved by adjusting the position of your head so that it's not tilting forward while you sleep. This keeps your airway open.ORThe CPAP machine might be delivering too much air for your trachea and lungs to handle. This could be resolved by Talking to your doctor about reducing the pressure setting on your CPAP machine.ORYou could have air leaks. No matter your level of CPAP pressure, if air is going in through your nose and is leaking out of your mouth, you will undoubtedly swallow involuntarily. This could be resolved by adjusting your mask appropriately, ensuring it is snug. You could also be using the wrong size mask. Additionally, you may want to get a full face mask for mouth breathers (it helps to hold your mouth closed.)
Can you use a cpap when you have a cleft palate?
You may have to use a "full face" mask (one that covers your mouth and nose). Your sleep therapist or doctor should be able to confirm this.
How to clean your CPAP machine?
Your CPAP machine should be cleaned every 1-2 weeks. Take a cloth, dampen it with small amount of water (only water). Wipe down all of the external surfaces. If you have a humidifier attached to your machine, take out the water chamber and wipe down the inside of the machine. Empty the water chamber and thoroughly clean the surfaces on the inside with mild detergent, rinse thoroughly and air dry. Your tubing can be cleaned using a tube cleaning kit which can be purchased from many CPAP suppliers. However, minimally it is recommended to replace it every three months. Your mask should be taken apart and cleaned with mild detergent every 1-2 weeks, then rinse and let air dry. Mask cleaning wipes can be purchased from CPAP suppliers as well. These are used daily to wipe down the mask pillows that cushion the face to remove the skin oils that have collected throughout the night. Your mask cushions should be replaced every 1-3 months depending on your type of mask and the insurance guidelines. The frames will usually need to be replaced every 6 mos to a year. Most insurances will cover a new mask every 6 mos.
