Understanding CPAP

What Is CPAP Therapy?

CPAP therapy uses prescribed positive airway pressure delivered through a mask while sleeping. The airflow helps maintain an open airway according to the treatment plan established by the appropriate healthcare professional.

The specific machine, mask, settings and support plan depend on the prescription and individual requirements.

How often should CPAP equipment be cleaned?

Cleaning frequency varies by manufacturer, model and component. Follow the schedule in the product instructions.

When should CPAP supplies be replaced?

Replace components according to the product guidance and sooner when wear, damage, leaks or reduced performance appear.
