CPAP Mask:
Mask fitting is an essential element of an apnea patient's success with continuous or auto CPAP therapy because it affects compliance, treatment efficacy, and possible side effects. Demands on mask stability increase as pressure increases. Higher pressures often result in air leak and patient discomfort, and certain CPAP masks (weather a full mask or a nasal mask) will not perform as well as others.
Most CPAP accessories require tighter CPAP headgear at higher pressures, and tightening may cause pressure sores. Some CPAP accessories such as a nasal mask and full face CPAP masks have become very popular among clinicians and patients because of their stability and comfortable design, which performs well without tight CPAP headgear, even at high pressures.
Titration and Mask Fitting
Titration and mask fitting will greatly affect the patient's comfort. Higher pressures will more likely cause noise disturbances or nasal irritation. These CPAP side effects can be minimized with an appropriate CPAP equipment selection and heated humidification. For patients who do not tolerate CPAP well, bi-level therapy or auto CPAP therapy may be the answer.

ResMed CPAP Machines
The ResMed CPAP machines are used for the treatment of sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea. These days CPAP machines are commonly used at home, after being set in advance by a sleep technician that adjusts the exact rate of CPAP pressure that suits the sleep apnea patient.
The ResMed CPAP machines stop the phenomenon of restricted airways in obstructive sleep apnea patients by delivering a stream of compressed air in constant rate through a nasal mask or face mask and applicable hose. The continuous air stream keeps the airways open under the air pressure and thereby prevents apnea during sleep.
The air pressure provided by the ResMed CPAP machines is measured in centimeters of water. A typical ResMed CPAP machine can deliver air pressures between 4 and 20 cm, while some of the more advanced ResMed CPAP machines can even deliver air pressures of up to 25 or 30 cm.
As CPAP treatment is mostly useful in treating sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea, ResMed has developed some of the most advanced CPAP machines which feature both compact structure and high efficiency. These ResMed CPAP machines compose the latest ResMed's S8, and include an automatic positive airway machine (APAP machine) and 2 CPAP machines that offer simple operation and maximum comfort for obstructive sleep apnea patients.
