Philips Intelligent Sleep Therapy System

Brian Yalung — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 04:34:21 +0000

For the people continuously suffering from sleep apnea, Philips Respironics has unveiled a new sleep therapy system that should address people who are having breathing difficulties at night. The new Continuous Positive Airway Pressure machine offers a new bi-level airway pressure technology which delivers a gentle flow of pressurized air through a mask and into the user, keeping their airway open and improving quality of rest.

With the growing number of people suffering from sleep apnea, this new system should be a welcome addition. OSA is a common condition that affects more men than women, with about 3.5 per cent of men and 1.5 per cent of women suffering from it in the UK.

US Government Extends Subsidies for Sleep Devices

The problem of sleep apnea is continuously growing and to try and help satisfy this problem, the US government has recently passed a bill to extend subsidies for additional sleep breathing devices and aid people suffering from the dreaded sleep problem.

Among the benefiting companies will be ResMed, a respiratory equipment maker that specializes in breathing devices and notably, sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. While its rival, Respironics is also specializing in this field, the passed subsidy is something that will need more than one specialized respiratory device company. With that said, ResMed can look to better sales in providing sleep solutions to its customers soon.

A lot of people have made the big switch and with their compiled testimonies, sleep disorder patients suffering from sleep apnea may want to consider trying out this alternative sleeping solution for better results and sleeping experiences.
