Do you have both COPD AND OSA?


 COPD / OSA survey


Do you have both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) AND obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)? We have created a survey to help us better understand what treatments you are currently using, to manage your COPD and OSA. Follow the link below to complete the five minute survey! Once we have collected your responses, we will share the results with you and the community on COPD360social and SleepHealth App Blog.

Do you need a new mask for your CPAP machine?

Start your New Year with a New Mask
 for your CPAP Machine

Do you use a CPAP machine? When was the last time you replaced your mask? Did you know it is recommended that you change your mask at least every 6 months? This is because the silicon can lose its structural integrity which can mean increased mask leak. A good seal makes therapy more effective and you get more benefit from your CPAP machine. 
Due to generous donations to the American Sleep Apnea Association, we have 2 different replacement masks available which we wanted to let you know about:
The ResMed Quattro masks are available in medium and large sizes and include headgear. The Philips Respironics Amara masks ship with 2 headgear sizes (small and large) and 4 cushion sizes (petite, small, medium and large). These both retail for over $175.
For a program donation of $25 you can get one mask, or two for $45, or even 3 for $60. All masks are shipped via USPS first class.
Just complete our simple online order form here. 
A prescription is required.
Make better sleep your New Years Resolution!
