CPAP, or continuous positive airway pressure, machines are a wise investment in your overall health and well-being. You’ll notice a difference in your day if you adhere to CPAP therapy. These are just a few of the ways that a CPAP can help you:

  • Improved moods
  • Sharper focus
  • Health Risk Prevention

Improved Moods

You are more likely to feel happier and more energized during the day if you get a good night’s sleep. You require 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night as an adult, and failure to accomplish this goal can lead to anger and dissatisfaction.

Sharper Focus

Therapy can improve day-to-day concentration and delay the onset of cognitive impairment such as dementia. To function correctly, your body requires enough oxygen to reach the brain. CPAP therapy can help with this, allowing your brain to function at its peak throughout the day.

Health Risk Prevention

The use of CPAP therapy helps reduce the risk of various disorders. It can help decrease blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke risk.

CPAP Maintenance and Care

Maintaining your CPAP machine is equally as vital as adhering to the guidelines. You’re not doing yourself any favors by putting up with a dirty or defective piece of equipment. Cleaning your mask, tubing, and water chambers daily are recommended. Use a soapy solution followed by a thorough rinsing and drying for best results.

You will also want to double-check that all of your accessories are up to date and functional. A leaky seal on a mask, for example, can make sleeping quite uncomfortable. One should replace each component in the following order:

  • Masks: 3 Months
  • Headgear and Chin Strap: 6 Months
  • Tubing: 3 Months
  • Water Chamber: 6 Months
  • CPAP Machine: 3 to 7 Years
