CPAP and Sleep Apnea - A User's Manual By a User is for individuals
who have been diagnosed with sleep apnea and use either CPAP or
BiPAP. It is a very practical guide to improve the ease of day to
day use including travel. After over 11 years of using BiPAP, the
author used his medical and research training and the inventiveness
of his profession (patent law) to solve most of the same problems
any user encounters which makes the individuals daily use much
easier and more therapeutic. You don't have to reinvent the best
way to use your equipment, just follow his advice. The very useful
topics he covers includes getting the mask to fit properly;
preventing the tube from getting caught in the sheets and bedding;
improving the method of connecting the mask to the tube to the
point it is so easy it can be done with one hand; providing a list
of over-the-counter pharmaceuticals that help you breath better
when using CPAP; providing a check list for travel of items not
used at home but may be needed when traveling so use is as easy as
at home regardless of the lodging; discussion of humidifier use and
tube sheaths; developing a method to ensuring that mask and
humidifier parts are not left at home when traveling; suggestions
on washing your mask pieces and tube; explaining why to save old
tubes and masks for pieces; disclosing how to have your CPAP
operate normally during power outages and explaining why it is
necessary to keep good records. In addition, the author includes
many pictures of how he uses his system when traveling based on his
experience in about 35 states as well as foreign travel in the UK,
France and New Zealand/Australia as well as on two cruises. An
added extra is the explanation of how the "quickie" nap refreshes
tired sleep apnea individuals and can be worked into a daily
routine. It is not a book about the medical aspects of sleep apnea
nor about the technical aspects of how CPAP works. It is a book for
those who have been diagnosed with sleep apnea and for whom CPAP or
BiPAP was prescribed as the recommended treatment.
