CPAP-PRO

Post by ems » Thu May 31, 2012 6:21 pm

My Sleep Specialist mentioned this mask to me today. CPAP-PRO

I'm not ready to try it yet, but I am curious. Has anyone tried it or use it?

PS - These earlier reviews are here on cpaptalk from several years ago. It may have been improved since then.

It's been around since 2007

I might have misunderstood the doctor, but I thought she said it was a new mask.

We used to have an active forum member who preferred the cpappro for regular use, and did not have the issues some have reported on here. I can't use it because of a chronic cough. It may be a good answer for someone who has nasal obstruction and doesn't want corrective surgery, so are resigned to mouth breathing. I don't think I would choose mouth breathing if nose breathing were an option because in my mind it could cause even worse dry mouth and maybe even more dental issues. But I could be wrong.
