CPAP Masks
CPAP Masks Australia
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a common condition today. If you are reading this, you must have noticed it with your partner, kid if not on yourself. It is all about blocking of airways hence problems with breathing that someone gets interrupted in sleep. OSA disruptions can occur up to seven times in one hour while you are on sleep. While it may not be considered a serious condition, prolonged airway blocking can lead to stroke and heart diseases hence the need for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy. This is where the mask comes in.
Description of CPAP masks
The medical tools are head gears worn to assist in opening up nostrils and the whole airway. Individuals with this condition are highly advised to wear the masks because they are comfortable, durable and effective. A CPAP mask is the ultimate positive airway pressure technique that you should not go looking any further.
The masks come in three parts; covers the forehead, the nose, and the chin. All the three parts are fitted with cushion for your comfortability throughout the night. Most of them have four-point adjustable appliances that ensure it fits to people of different face sizes. CPAP Masks can be used for both children and adults. While it is not advised to share this equipment, the adjustments ensure no one is left to struggle through the night with OSA because of unfitting equipment.
How is it different?
Apart from the three parts guarded with cushions, the masks are heavily padded for durability and protection from adverse environmental conditions. Unlike other CPAP therapy techniques, the CPAP masks are constructed with light materials. The cushions, for instance, are made of silicone, which is extremely light. You will barely feel the weight on your face while walking around the house even when turning in bed.
While most of them are full face masks, they can be separated remaining with a nasal component only. However, such decisions should be only after consultations with your doctor. Also, CPAP masks are fitted with easily adjustable straps to ensure treatment effectiveness and comfortability of the equipment.
