Additional Edit to Treatment (CPAP)

[edit]

There is a recent meta-analysis that provides more evidence backing up the CPAP treatment: "It has been found through meta-analysis that continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) significantly improves patient's with obstructive sleep apnea measure of sleepiness. CPAP seems to benefit patients with more severe sleep apnea the most."

More modern pictures

[edit]

I replaced the picture of the ancient CPAP device with one of a newer model. It would be nice if we could get some more up to date pictures of CPAP masks as well. Maybe with a bit of diversity in patients: overweight while males are not the only ones with sleep apnea. Nimlhûg (talk) 16:49, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
