Reid Health’s Sleep Center helps patients with sleep apnea find the right CPAP option to improve sleep quality and health.
CPAP options at Reid Health Sleep Center
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy is one of the most effective and trusted treatments for sleep apnea. At Reid Health’s Sleep Center, our board-certified sleep medicine specialists work closely with patients to find a CPAP option that’s comfortable, effective, and easy to use, helping you breathe easier and sleep better.
What is CPAP therapy?
A CPAP device delivers a steady stream of air through a mask while you sleep, keeping your airways open and preventing pauses in breathing caused by sleep apnea. With consistent use, CPAP therapy can reduce daytime fatigue, improve concentration, and lower your risk of heart problems, stroke, and other complications.
How to get a CPAP machine
Before receiving a CPAP, you’ll need a sleep study to confirm a diagnosis of sleep apnea. Once diagnosed, your sleep specialist can prescribe a CPAP device. If approved by your insurance provider, the cost of the machine is typically covered.
Our team can help guide you through the process, from diagnosis and prescription to setup and education.
Type of CPAP options
Your provider will recommend the best machine and mask based on your comfort and sleep habits. Options could include:
- Standard CPAP: Delivers steady, continuous air pressure throughout the night.
- Auto-CPAP (APAP): Automatically adjusts air pressure levels as you sleep for maximum comfort.
- Bi-Level PAP (BiPAP): Provides different pressures for inhaling and exhaling, ideal for certain sleep or breathing conditions.
