What is a CPAP Machine?
A CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machine is a medical device designed to help people with sleep-related breathing disorders, especially obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). It delivers a steady stream of air through a mask to keep the airway open during sleep, preventing pauses in breathing.
