CPAP: Relief for Snoring
CPAP or Continuous Positive Airway Pressure helps people with a
chronic snoring problem find relive without surgical
intervention. Nasal CPAP delivers air into your airway through a
specially designed nasal mask or pillows. This is not a device
that breaths for you, the flow of air creates enough pressure
when you inhale to keep your airway open.
If you have problems with snoring that disturbs other family
members, find that you have a problem with being sleepy during
the day, wake up often at night, or episodes of obstructed
breathing during the night. Before deciding if CPAP is right for
you it would be a good idea to talk with your doctor.
There are many factors that will need to be considered before
your doctor decides that CPAP is right for you. Some factors
that will need to be considered include, medical history,
alcohol and tobacco use, and cardiovascular disease. You will
need to have a complete physical, including an ears, nose and
throat exam. If you find
that you are particularly
claustrophobic this treatment may not be right for you. Before
receiving the nasal mask, you would need to have the proper CPAP
pressure set during a "sleep study." This will complete the
evaluation necessary for prescribing the appropriate treatment
for your needs. If after you talk to your doctor he decides that
CPAP is the right treatment for you, you would be required to
wear a mask every night to assist with opening your airways.
With few exceptions CPAP has been found to be nearly 100 percent
effective, although it does not cure the problem.
With today's advances in medicine there is not longer a need to
live with this undesirable condition any longer. CPAP is the one
of the least evasive and safest treatment.
