15 questions = 5 minutes = Chance to win 1 of 10 $50 checks. No strings attached. It's that simple.If you are a CPAP or Bilevel user, and utilize humidification in your daily therapy, we would like you to complete this survey. You could win one of ten $50 checks as a token of our appreciation.
With CPAP failure rates still alarmingly high at 50-60%, patients should be provided all of the tools they need to ensure successful compliance. Heated humidification not only makes CPAP therapy more pleasant, it also resolves many compliance issues.
Excess condensation can develop in the CPAP tubing and cause an uncomfortable rain out effect. In recent years, the introduction of heated-wired tubing has given patients options; but do they work well and are they worth the cost? There is no better feedback than from those who have actually tried it. Please take this poll if you are a patient who has used humidification and/or a heated-wire tubing. Thank you for your time.
