CPAP therapy
The abbreviation (CPAP) is the acronym for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. CPAP is used to apply patients with sleep apnea, upper airway obstruction.
CPAP is a fan of simple breathing patients with sleep apnea during sleep using our host, after a study of polysomnography in a sleep laboratory.
If a patient has sleep apnea and their upper airway through the nasal cavity, the palatal tissue, or hinder the base of the tongue (hypopharynx). But inThere may be all upper airway.
CPAP keeps the upper airway disorder, carried by a constant flow of air through a mask during sleep, in fact forcing the airway to remain open so that the patient can breathe and relieve apnea.
There are many types of such machines on the market, which basically do the same thing. Usually a small, compact device that attaches to both tubes that carry air to thePatients during periods of rest. Some models have a c-flex and humidifier settings and makes it easier to exhale heated.
There are also various types of face mask that can be worn with continuous positive airway pressure machines in the airways. Straps that go around the head and drags you to the mask in place to maintain in order to discourage escapes.
Complications with CPAP
Some patients are unable to be with a mask all night, seriously reducing the benefits of this modeTreatment.
Still other patients want to have a good night's sleep without a mask, so choose the surgery.
Patients who experience dizziness when using CPAP therapy, chest tightness, the risk for developing sleep apnea or complex (CSA), dry nose, sneezing, runny nose, nasal bleeding, in extreme cases, infection around the lining brain.
Sleep tight through this with your doctor and therapist, you will be able to determine the correct settings for the foot.
BiPAPTherapy
Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure, is similar to CPAP therapy, however, is with the BiPAP therapy, there are two different pressure settings for the patient.
Patients treated with BiPAP therapy were found to have breathing problems in sleep.
Provides continuous positive airway pressure or pressure (CPAP) machine, is a constant flow of airway pressure during exhalation and inhilation.
BiPAP therapy is used to treat more than sleep apnea.The BiPAP machine can detect how much pressure a patient needs and provide sufficient air pressure in inspiration and expiration.
The BiPAP machine can double the settings as much air into the patient, and from the lungs without the normal muscular activity required to do so.
Bilevel positive airway pressure is very useful for people who have heart failure and various types of lung disease, especially patients who have normal course ofOf carbon dioxide.
BiPAP therapy is to breathe for the treatment of central sleep apnea is a sleep disorder caused by the failure of the brain to the chest muscles are characterized signal used.
New BiPAP machines are now on the market, the Bi-Flex is a very useful feature that provides pressure relief for the smooth transition between the end of the IPAP and EPAP early.
Complications associated with BiPAP therapy
Complications arising from the use of bilevel positive airway pressure, some areMask symptoms develop, some injured patients and numbness around the area mask.
In addition, there are already documented cases of patients with bloating from swallowing air, and
As always, it is best to consult your doctor about the kind of pap therapy is right for you to decide.
