Sleep Tight With the Right Fit and Regular Replacements
Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the upper airway becomes narrow as the muscles relax naturally during sleep. The PAP machine stops this phenomenon by delivering a steady flow of compressed air to a nasal pillow, nose mask, or full-face mask so that unobstructed breathing becomes possible; which in turn reduces or prevents the apnea during sleep.
Often, sleep apnea sufferers are unaware that continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) masks and sleep apnea devices should be replaced regularly. Nightly wear will cause a good fit to loosen up over time reducing the effectiveness of the sleep apnea mask. It’s equally important to keep sleep apnea related equipment clean and regularly replace tubing and other parts to maximize the CPAP machines effectiveness.
In addition to diabetic products, Liberty Medical offers CPAP supplies, personalized service, and friendly reorder reminders that will help you maintain the safe, healthy rest you need.
