Sleep apnea is a condition where a person’s airway collapses during sleep, which leads to periods where the individual stops breathing. According to the National Sleep Foundation, more than 18 million Americans are affected by sleep apnea. This increasingly common sleep disorder is linked to several comorbidities, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and increased risk of death. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the preferred treatment for sleep apnea, but adherence remains low.
Managing a respiratory illness shouldn’t mean being stuck at home with oxygen therapy. That’s why portable oxygen concentrators have become so popular. Oxygen therapy patients enjoy the freedom to go about their daily lives while receiving the oxygen they need. These freedoms include driving.
Our ResMed AirMini™ Review revealed that ResMed has listened to travelers using CPAP, and responded! One of the biggest complaints among CPAP users is the size of their unit. Not only do larger standard units make traveling more difficult, but the alternative of vacation or business travel without their CPAP could be a health risk.

Snoring is one of the signs of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a medical condition causing the sleeper to stop breathing and, in turn, increases the risk of stroke or heart attack. About 12 million Americans have been diagnosed with (OSA).The most common treatment for moderate or severe OSA is a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine which is used with a mask that is worn while ...
A BiPAP BiLevel, BPAP, or VPAP machine (all common nominees) is for a patient with sleep apnea who needs two separate pressure settings - a higher pressure for inhalation and a lower pressure for exhalation. In cases where the inhalation pressure is very high, many patients find it too difficult to breathe out against what seems like a gale-force wind. If you have a BiPAP prescription, you may want to learn more about BiPAP machines by doing a BiPAP comparison to determine which BiPAP machine is right for you.

Staying informed can help with solutions so that your CPAP therapy is not compromised.
