Are You Failing Cpap? Don't Feel Bad, Most Patients Do Not Tolerate Cpap.

PR Log (Press Release) – Jun 12, 2009 – The American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine held it's 18th annual meeting in Seattle Washington June 5-7, 2009 and the verdict is in.  Patients prefer oral appliances to CPAP when they are offered a choice.  Patients do not like the CPAP machine, the hoses or the mask.  They are bothered by dry eyes, sinus problems, acne and other skin problems and often they just hate their CPAP machines and all the fuss and bother associated with them.  But not all patients feel that way.  About a quarter of the patients who receive CPAP love it and use it on a regular basis while the majority of patients just do not tolerate it.

Patients who are seen at accredited labs and work with board certified sleep physicians seem to do much better with CPAP than the average patient.  Some centers report utilization rates as high as 80%.

The moral is to see board certified physicians at accredited (by the AASM) sleep centers if you want to succeed in using CPAP.  If you HATE CPAP go to http://www.ihatecpap.com and if you live in the Chicagoland Metropolitan area you can visit Dr Shapira the founder of I HATE CPAP LLC.   He is a Diplomate and charter member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, A Founding member of DOSA, The Dental Organization for Sleep Apnea and a Diplomat of the Academy of Pain Management.
