Sleep apnea is a severe condition that limits the oxygen to your lungs and your body. Patients with this condition may experience shortness of breath, poor sleep, and headaches when awake. You may also suffer from COPD which is a lung disease. In both cases, you will need a CPAP machine and a CPAP Hose Connector. This treatment will provide sufficient oxygen to your lungs and body while you are asleep. Yes, you need to visit a doctor, but you also need to connect the equipment, which may be complicated.
Once you have all of the equipment mentioned above, you will need to connect them. This is a relatively simple task that will require a few minutes of your time. Keep in mind that each step is important and it must not be skipped.
Most masks come without an oxygen port. In that case scenario, you will need a device called an Oxygen Bleed-In Adapter. It is really affordable and mandatory in this case scenario. If the mask has the mentioned port, it will be plugged with a plastic cap. Remove that cap before moving to the next steps.
The next step is to connect the tubing and the mask. Move the rubber connector on the hose itself and connect it to the mask. This may take a few seconds. Keep in mind that the two must be perfectly connected and there must not be any leaks!
Now you have to connect the OxygenBleed-In Adapter to the tubing. Attach it to the opposite side than your CPAP machine tubing and use the rubber connector.
Use a cannula to connect the small port on the Oxygen Bleed-In Adapter to the oxygen concentrator. The connection should be tight and it must not leak, as you should know already. In addition, this port is a small tube on the Oxygen Bleed-In Adapter parallel to the main tubing.
Now you will have to connect these components to a CPAP machine. It is a straightforward task and it will take a few seconds only. Make sure to turn on the CPAP machine first and then turn on the oxygen concentrator. When turning the equipment off, turn off the oxygen concentrator first and then the machine.
There are a few additional tips you can use to make this process even simpler and easier. They are very helpful tips and they can make a massive difference.
