What is CPAP?

CPAP is the gold standard of treatment for a person suffering from obstructive sleep apnoea.

CPAP is a machine that provides a gentle flow of air pressure through a mask to keep the airways open during sleep.

How does CPAP work?

It works by pushing air into your airways to keep it open.

The CPAP holds the airway open so that it does not collapse.

Therefore, it prevents you from having apnoeic events.

Do I need a CPAP machine?

If you have been diagnosed with severe sleep apnoea then the best treatment for you is a CPAP machine.

However it is essential that you do not have an obstructed nose as the air from the CPAP cannot pass through a nose that is obstructed.

The best way to find this out is to let us take a scan of your airways.

You may feel that your nose is fine but if it is obstructed you will not be able to tolerate the machine and it is a waste of your money to buy one.

How can the CPAP machine help me?

You can alleviate most of the signs and symptoms of sleep apnoea with a CPAP machine, such as

Daytime sleepiness
Tiredness
Morning headaches
Poor concentration
Decreased libido or impotence
Depression and anxiety
