The American Sleep Apnea Association identifies
CPAP therapy as the most common treatment for sleep apnea.
CPAP therapy works by preventing the airway from closing
during sleep. It is administered at bedtime through a
nasal or facial mask held in place by velcro straps around
the patient’s head. The mask is connected by a tube
to a small air compressor. The CPAP machine sends air
under pressure through the tube and into the mask, where
it imparts positive pressure to the upper airways, preventing
the tissues in the back of the throat from collapsing
during sleep.
This
is an extremely effective form of treatment when used
in compliance with doctor’s orders. However, non-compliance
is a big issue. It has been estimated that over 65% of
patients use the machine for a maximum of just 4 hours
per night when it should be used for the duration of the
patient’s sleep. Additionally, many patients report
using the CPAP for just a few nights out of the week.
Discomfort is a major factor contributing
to non-compliance. During side sleeping or stomach sleeping,
the mask presses and rubs against the patient’s
face, which leads to discomfort and can also distort the
mask, causing leaks and exacerbating the problem of non-compliance.
The people at Contour Living have developed
a solution. It’s the CPAP Multi-Mask Sleep Aid.
