What are the pros and cons of a latex mattress?

It is very dense (typically 4 lb/cubic foot density) and a quality mattress core of latex will last virtually forever. Latex mattress cores (this is the industry term for the piece of latex used to make the mattress and they tend to be 5" or 6" thick) are always made with holes in them (called pincore holes) - these holes soften the latex and make it comfortable. The larger the holes, the softer the latex core will feel. Most latex mattresses just have one size of holes through the whole mattress so the mattress has a uniform feel throughout. Some cores, though, are made with different sections of latex with different sized holes. This allows the bed to have different zones - softer under the shoulders and feet and firmer under the hips. Finally, many latex beds layer other materials (whether softer latex or memory foam, etc) on top of the latex core to give the bed a softer or more yielding feel. Latex mattresses have a nice bouncy feel and they are very supportive.

Which part of cpap controls oxygen saturation?

The CPAP machine itself does not control your SPO2 or oxygen saturation, so there is no part that controls this. Simplified, SPO2 is the amount of oxygen, expressed as a percent, found in the blood. Your optimal SPO2 is determined during your sleep study. The RT or Polysomnographer that performed your sleep study would adjust your pressure, measured in centimeters of water, to determine what decreases your apnea events while keeping your SPO2 as optimal as possible. This is called titrating. So essentially the oxygen saturation is controlled by the pressure setting that is determined by your physician as your therapeutic level or range.

If by using a pulse ox monitor, you have determined that your SPO2 is dropping while using your CPAP machine, you should discuss these finding with your physician because a new sleep study may be required.

What is the definition of a sleeping disorder?

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.

When is it OK for a couple to sleep together?

I am interpreting your question 2 ways: when is it OK for a couple to sleep together in their relationship, and when is it ok for a couple to sleep together if they are avoiding conception. 1: I believe in sex only in marriage. 2: You have to compute the woman's monthly cycle (ovulation) to make sure she doesn't get pregnant. You might also want to use "safe sex." I would not recomend drugs, esp. pills as there are chances of having abnormal/mentally weak babies in the future and this is very unhealthy for the woman over long usage. I think the best way is by using codoms. If you are looking into a more permanent birth control, tubal ligation is REALLY permanent. This can be reversed but chances of the reversal operation is very slim. A better operation is for men: vasectomy. It is safer for a man to go through vasectomy than for a woman to have ligation, also reversibility is better.
