CPAP's (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure - Machines) and BiPAP's (Bilevel
Positive Airway Pressure - Machines) aid in maintaining normal breathing while
sleeping. Many people suffer from a form of sleep apnea which causes the patient
to stop breathing several times throughout the night.
This is not only dangerous for the obvious reason but also
causes restless sleep as the patient can never get into a deep sleep. CPAP's and
BiPAP's are an effective way to get back to a good night's sleep. Our
Respiratory Therapist work closely with our CPAP and BiPAP patients to ensure
they are getting the best use out of the equipment.
