Newly Launched - The CPAP Comfort Center and an Introduction from our RT

Published 08 May 08 03:32 PM | debbie shirley

There is a tremendous amount of information available these days about the dangers of sleep apnea.  We know that untreated sleep apnea can increase your chances of having increased blood pressure, worsened diabetes, and increased risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease. Untreated sleep apnea can also cause depression, impotency, morning headaches and weight gain.  Did you know that an  individual with untreated sleep apnea can cost our overly burdened health care system twice as much as a treated individual? 

 

Having reminded everyone of all the dangers of sleep apnea  What’s the good news?

 

CPAP(Continous Positive Airway Pressure) is a highly effective  and is the preferred therapy for treating sleep apnea. I have been working with sleep apnea patients for over 15 years and have seen many advances. CPAPs are much smaller, more comfortable, quieter.  Masks are more comfortable and you now have many, many types and styles to choose from.  If you are a faithful CPAP user, you are to be congratulated and I truly hope you are experiencing the benefits of CPAP.  Often CPAP users don’t obviously see the benefits, but we know that compliant CPAP use can take the workload of your heart, you may live longer, you may be more pleasant to be around and your spouse may love you more for not snoring.  I have had patients that were able to improve their blood pressure so much, they were able get off their blood pressure medicine. 

 

I truly love working with sleep apnea patients.  Having worked as a respiratory therapist for so many years with chronically ill patients, it is great to work with people that I know I can truly make their lives better. I am committed to helping those with sleep apnea.  I am fortunate to be with a company that is so dedicated to making lives better.  I invite you to look at our new CPAP Comfort Center especially created to make CPAP use more comfortable and to help new CPAP users be able to use their CPAPs. Just recently launched on CPAPSupplyUSA.com, the CPAP Comfort Center is an area where users can find many items to increase the comfort and convenience of their sleep therapy. Visit today to see CPAP Moisture Cream, Headgear Strap Cushions, and Tubing Holders. 

 

Our many years of experience and listening to you helps us to help others.  Spend some time on our website.  Look over our newest additions.  I did some research and found that the most common cause of people not using their CPAP is the lack of education. Lack of education for both the providers and the patients.  We have added an Education area for visitors to address this concern.  I am personally available as a respiratory therapist to help you and to help you understand the importance of CPAP use. We have a full staff of highly trained customer service representatives dedicated to helping you. Other factors that decrease CPAP compliance included a poor relationship with providers of the equipment and common complications of therapy such as marks on the face, discomfort on the bridge of the nose, and  nasal congestion.  That’s why at CPAP Supply USA, we carry a huge inventory of machines and masks that will meet your individual needs. Our CPAP Comfort Center offers help with these common problems. I welcome your comments. Your experience and knowledge may make a big difference in someone else’s life. Please let me hear from you - Share your experience, good or bad. This is the first of many  informal blogs from me.  Send in your requests for topics to discuss, helpful hints and your  personal recommendations. Let’s work together to improve your comfort and quality of life

Remember - Your choice, Your life, Our promise.
