What is Laboratory CAPA system? Many people have never heard of the word.

    Firstly, we explain the CPAP ------Continuous Positive Airway Pressure .
    It is a medical device which is designed to keep a patient's airway open while providing respiratory ventilation so that the patient can breathe. These systems were originally used in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea(OSA), but they are also used in some medical settings such as intensive care units. In contrast with respiratory ventilators which require intubation, a CPAP system is very easy to use, and it usually has less side effects.

    With a CPAP system, a patient wears either a face mask or a nasal pillow, and a CPAP generator connects with a tube. The generator creates a steady flow of pressurized air which holds the patient's airway open, sort of like how the pressured air inside a balloon keeps the balloon inflated. If a patient cannot breathe on his or her own, the CPAP system provides a steady supply of air, while patients who suffer airway closures when they sleep will not have experience airway obstructions while using a CPAP system.

    Secondly ,what about the application of the CAPA system?
    It is mainly used in NICU, PICU. For people suffering from acute pneumonia, pulmonary hemorrhage, I and type II respiratory failure, shock and heart failure and hypoxemia diseases such as premature child, newborn, infant, pediatric patients.

    Thirdly ,CPAP system can give patients what?
    CPAP treatment can be highly effective in treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. For some patients, the improvement in the quality of sleep and quality of life due to CPAP treatment will be noticed after a single night's use. Often, the patient's sleep partner also benefits from markedly improved sleep quality, due to the amelioration of the patient's loud snoring.
