A Quick Introduction To CPAP Treatment

Patients with obstructive sleep apnea have soft tissues and muscles, in their throat and airway, that collapse during sleep, preventing proper air flow.

CPAP treatment maintains proper pressure in air passages, allowing air to flow in without obstruction, and allowing the patient to get a good night’s sleep.
