We all know that “CPAP” is a general term which refers to the different types of positive airway pressure therapies and machine used to treat sleep apnea. And today we want to introduce you the types of CPAP machines which is one of the most important equipment in CPAP therapy and BMC’s popular products of them.
There are three main types of CPAP machines to treat sleep apnea: CPAP, APAP and Bilevel. They all create airflow which is pushed through the tubing, to the mask, and into your lungs. Each type of machines has different features.
- CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machine applies constant mild air pressure to a person's upper airway to keep their airway open to make them sleep well.
