More Information
Summary:The CPAP enclosure is for use in treating sleep apnea in a patient. The CPAP enclosure creates a protected space that contains atmospheric gases at an increased pressure. The increased pressure created within the protected space of the CPAP enclosure prevents the narrowing of the patient's breathing airways during sleep. The CPAP enclosure includes a tent, a valve structure, and a CPAP machine. The tent forms the protected space of the CPAP enclosure. The CPAP machine generates a flow of atmospheric gas under pressure that is pumped into the protected space of the CPAP enclosure. The valve structure controls the flow of atmospheric gas under pressure from the CPAP machine into the protected space of the CPAP enclosure. The valve structure controls the pressure of the atmospheric gas contained within the protected space of the CPAP enclosure.
