Thank You for Choosing Apria As Your Home Medical Equipment Provider You are receiving this because your doctor has diagnosed you with sleep apnea and prescribed a Positive Airway Pressure device for you to use while sleeping. Positive Airway Pressure therapy — also known as PAP therapy or sleep therapy — helps millions of users feel more energized and refreshed by increasing the quality of their sleep.
Overview Your doctor has prescribed PAP therapy because you have been diagnosed with sleep apnea. Sleep apnea occurs when a person repeatedly stops breathing for 10 or more seconds at a time while sleeping. These events may occur hundreds of times throughout the night, causing oxygen levels in the blood to drop, putting stress on the heart. If left untreated, sleep apnea is linked to many other serious conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

Helpful Tips For Nasal and Full-Face Masks · To resolve leaks at the upper part of the mask, adjust the upper headgear straps. · For leaks at the lower part, adjust the lower headgear straps. · When adjusting straps, loosen or tighten both the left and right straps so that adjustments are made evenly. · Adjust only enough for a comfortable seal. · The upper strap adjustment is the key to seal and comfort. · Do not overtighten the lower straps. They mainly serve to keep the cushion in position.
