Sleep apnea treatment Apr, 22 2024
A detailed look at the four mask types
One of the most important components of successful CPAP* therapy is selecting an obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) mask type.1 However, choosing the right mask can be overwhelming because there is not one style or shape to suit all OSA therapy users. So, when it comes time to investigating all your CPAP mask options, consider your personal preferences and individual needs. Give some thought to what sleeping position you prefer and whether you breathe through your mouth or nose. It is also wise to think about the physicality of your face, e.g., would the insides of your nostrils be sensitive to prongs and is your skin overly sensitive?
By understanding your individual needs, you will find it easier to choose a style of mask. There are four mask types to select from.
