Patient Information
CPAP therapy is life-changing — but it’s important to follow the correct steps before purchasing your machine. Whether you suspect sleep apnea or were recently diagnosed, here’s everything you need to know to get started safely and confidently.
If you’re struggling with poor sleep, snoring, or fatigue, the first step is visiting a doctor. A general practitioner or sleep specialist can assess your symptoms and refer you for testing.
A sleep study (polysomnography) is usually done at a sleep clinic or at home using a portable test. It helps determine whether you have obstructive sleep apnea or another condition.
If diagnosed, your doctor will provide a CPAP prescription outlining the type of machine or pressure settings needed for your condition. This helps us ensure you’re getting the correct equipment.
