Quality sleep is the foundation of health, well-being, and happiness. However, for many people, sleep apnea can be a serious obstacle on the path to restful nights. Fortunately, effective solutions are available to help.
Our state-of-the-art CPAP and BiLevel breathing aids enable patients worldwide to once again enjoy peaceful sleep and improve their health.
CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) and BiLevel devices are used to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Both devices work by keeping the airways open during sleep, but they differ in how the pressure is delivered.
Using CPAP or BiPAP devices can dramatically reduce or eliminate apnea episodes during the night, allowing for deeper and uninterrupted sleep.
Better sleep means more energy and improved concentration during the day. Patients often report feeling more alert and productive.
Treating sleep apnea can reduce the risk of serious health issues such as high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Many patients notice an overall improvement in quality of life, including better mood and a reduction in symptoms of depression and anxiety.
The choice between CPAP and BiLevel devices depends on the specific needs of the patient. Our sleep experts work closely with you to assess your condition and recommend the best option for you.
Obstructive or central sleep apnea.
1) Diagnosis confirmed by polysomnographic/poligraphic overnight recording in a specialized Sleep Disorders Laboratory or Sleep Medicine Center.
2) AHI index greater than 30 times per hour with individual episodes lasting at least 10 seconds or, if the AHI index is between 15 and 30 times per hour with individual episodes lasting at least 10 seconds, the insured person must have at least 3 symptoms from the following groups:
a) Documentation of excessive daytime sleepiness leading to reduced
work efficiency and mood changes
b) Hypertension,
c) TIA, CVI, heart failure, or myocardial infarction (one symptom is sufficient),
d) Obesity (BMI greater than 30).
3) Confirmed effectiveness of the CPAP device.
CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) device delivers constant air pressure through a mask worn over the nose or nose and mouth. This steady pressure prevents the upper airways from collapsing, allowing uninterrupted airflow and continuous breathing throughout the night.
BiLevel (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure) device delivers two different air pressures—higher pressure during inhalation and lower pressure during exhalation. This technology allows more natural breathing and can be beneficial for patients who have difficulty exhaling against the constant pressure of CPAP devices.
Both devices keep the airways open during sleep, preventing apnea episodes. This enables continuous breathing and improves sleep quality.
Benefits include improved sleep quality, increased energy and focus, reduced risk of health issues such as high blood pressure and heart disease, and overall improved quality of life.
The choice depends on the specific needs of the patient. CPAP is usually effective for milder cases of apnea, while BiLevel may be recommended for more severe cases or patients with additional respiratory problems.
Most patients find both devices comfortable to use, but comfort can vary based on individual preferences and needs. Our specialists help adjust the device for optimal comfort.
Adjustment can take a few weeks. Most patients quickly get used to the device and notice improvements in sleep quality.
Side effects can include dry mouth, nasal congestion, or skin irritation where the mask touches the face. Most side effects are mild and can be managed with the help of our expert team.
The device and mask should be regularly cleaned according to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure hygiene and optimal functionality.
Effectiveness can be assessed by a reduction in apnea symptoms, improved sleep quality, and increased daytime energy. Regular check-ups with your doctor also help monitor therapy effectiveness.
Yes, many CPAP and BiLevel devices are portable and designed for easy use during travel. Our experts can help you choose the right model for your needs.
Yes, a prescription from a specialist doctor who diagnosed sleep apnea is required to obtain a CPAP or BiLevel device.
