THE BENEFITS OF A CPAP MACHINE FOR APNEA SUFFERERS

Obstructive sleep apnoea (or apnea) can come with a whole host of other health issues, including heart disease, stroke, and issues related to tiredness. Using a CPAP machine, however, which works to prevent the blocking of the airwaves caused by sleep apnoea, is an effective and recommended method to prevent other problems arising. While a CPAP mask can take a little getting used to (and look at little strange) it can do wonders for your health and wellbeing. The following are just a few reasons you should consider using a CPAP machine if you have sleep apnoea:

A CPAP MACHINE HELPS PREVENT SERIOUS HEART PROBLEMS

One of the biggest health risks of sleep apnoea is that of heart problems caused by nightly breathing restrictions. Stopping breathing on a regular basis can alter a person’s blood pressure and reduce blood oxygen levels, placing great strain on the heart. In this way, untreated sleep apnoea can increase the risk of death from congestive heart failure and coronary artery disease. Using a CPAP machine, however, can reduce these risks down to acceptable levels, giving your heart the care and attention it deserves.

IT REDUCES THE RISK OF STROKE

Strokes are another serious health risk associated with sleep apnoea. Sufferers are two to four times more likely to experience a stroke than non-sufferers, increasing their risk of death and disability. Using a CPAP machine is a simple and effective way of eliminating this risk.

IMPROVING ALERTNESS, CONCENTRATION, AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING

As sleep apnoea can have a big impact on the quality of a person’s sleep, it can have some serious consequences for a person’s ability to stay alert, happy and in control on a day to day basis. Indeed, severe cases of sleep apnoea can have hugely detrimental effects on a person’s brain tissue, impacting a person’s ability to store memories and concentrate on simple tasks. Using a CPAP machine, however, is a great way to stop this. New users of the technology will be able to see the difference quickly after starting treatment, giving them a whole new lease of life.

In line with NSW government directives, ApneaSeal have put a number of measures in place to protect employees and customers. ApneaSeal production remains operational, however, there is the potential for a few days’ additional delay due to restrictions and busy delivery services.
