The article explains CPAP events per hour as a measure of sleep apnea severity and highlights how ENT specialists can improve treatment outcomes through non-surgical and surgical airway interventions alongside CPAP therapy.

Nose burning when breathing is commonly caused by inflammation or dryness from infections, allergies, irritants, or sinus issues. ENT specialists can diagnose underlying causes and recommend treatments to relieve discomfort and improve nasal health.

Auto adjusting CPAP (APAP) machines dynamically adjust air pressure based on breathing patterns, enhancing comfort and adherence compared to traditional fixed-pressure CPAP, and may improve sleep apnea management with personalized therapy and fewer side effects.

This article explores common causes of CPAP noise—such as mask leaks, machine vibrations, and condensation—that disrupt sleep, and offers practical tips along with ENT specialist guidance to help users achieve quieter, more comfortable therapy.
