Published in the Journal of Clinical sleep Medicine: PAP-NAP
July 18th, 2008 | 
Author: Last month, we published an innovative approach to introducing PAP Therapy to our patients. Published in the Journal of Clinical sleep Medicine (June 15, 2008 issue), we explore how a daytime procedure called the PAP-NAP can be used to help sleep apnea patients learn about the breathing mask treatment in a more comfortable environment. We're already receiving phone calls from sleep centers around the country seeking to learn how to incorporate this step into their clinical settings. In the future, we will be developing a 1-hr CME program to provide assistance to sleep medical providers and centers that want to use the PAP-NAP.

Hi! I was surfing and found your blog post… nice! I love your blog.

FINALLY, someone who understands the skill and abilities or our sleep techs!~! I am both a RPSGT and a RRT, and feel this could recoup up to 50% of those pts that would have failed miserably! Why havent we heard of this in the mainstream periodicals?? As a coordinator of a sleep lab always looking for ways to help my pts and of course increase revenue!
