For moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea, the most common treatment is the use of a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or Automatic Positive Airway Pressure (APAP) device. This device 'splints' the patient's airway open during sleep by means of a flow of pressurized positive air...

CPAP has been proven to be very effective when it comes to treating sleep apnea conditions in adults. Studies have revealed that by the use of CPAP, daytime sleepiness has been significantly reduced, especially for those who suffer from moderate to severe sleep apnea. Individuals who have...
Technology has advanced so much recently that a sleep study can now be done 100% at home, with no need to spend the night at a sleep lab. The sleep study will determine your level of sleep apnea—mild, moderate, or severe—based on the number of breathing stoppages that occur per hour...

For people who need moderate to high airway pressure, this may be a better option, as these higher pressures may make it difficult to breathe out with a CPAP device. For example, typically you will use a BiPAP device if you need pressure levels of 15 cm H2O or higher for sleep apnea ...

methods. Researchers have shown that those who use CPAP have less daytime sleepiness, depression, and less likely to have heart problems or heart failure. It has shown to lower blood pressure during the day and at nighttime in people who have moderate to severe sleep apnea and those who use...
