    Are you sure that during inspiration, the drop in intrathoracic pressure creates pressure on the vena cava? I agree that inspiration leads to increased venous return, but this is because the right atrium pressure decreases and makes it easier for the heart to fill. I dont understand how a drop in intrathoracic pressure leads to an increases pressure on the vena cava. What you are illustrating with the syringe is the pressure on the thoracic wall from the atmosphere, not the pressure on the vena cava.

    I snored myself awake during my sleep test, and thought, "oh boy now I have to wear this thing" and I was right. Thank goodness, my ability to fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up refreshed has never been better. No longer a mouth breather, the nose mask was the way to go for me. For years I struggled to fall asleep and then would oversleep in the morning, be late for work etc. Really could not be more pleased with the results.

    Hey brother, great job. I found out today that I have sleep apnea. Of course, I had the test 2 years ago and apparently someone forgot to notify me. Lol, I'm not kidding. I was originally told they would only contact me IF I had sleep apnea. Chronic fatigue brought me back to the doctor and a review of my test results. Great job explaining CPAP and keeping it entertaining. Thank you.

I can "sleep" for 8 - 9 hours and get up in the morning, have coffee, and start to nod off within 2 hours if I am not physically moving around. My CPAP pick up has been delayed several times so I haven't received it yet. I had an eye surgery unexpectedly rescheduled that postponed the pick up and then they made a mistake in scheduling and I showed up on a date that only the secretary was in the office Then I had to fly out of state unexpectedly for a family matter. Hopefully, I will be getting it this week. I will let you know if/how much it improves my fatigue. I was an extremely active person that required very little sleep throughout my whole life, it is only the past few years that I am always tired.

At first, I struggled with being able to exhale as well. What worked for me was adjusting the fit of the mask and just relaxing and thinking about things other than my breathing. It then came naturally.

    Are you a doctor? I have a question. I been using a cpap over a year now and my event number each night is 1.5 or less. Just had a night that it was 0.0. Am I getting these numbers because of the machine or am I getting those numbers myself naturally? I originally tested at moderate at 21 events an hour. I also had the surgery on my throat and nose this past March in hopes that it helps. Havnt restested yet because of covid.

I'm stubborn so I wake up half way through the night with my chest cramping and I can feel even when I'm asleep I'm gasping for air. I'm in bad health.

    I am a little confused? I was always taught that during normal Negative pressure inspiration as the thorax expands and comes under negative pressure it actually "SUCKS" blood up into the Vena Cava from the abdomen increasing Pre-load and it is when we exhale creating positive pressure in the thorax it is then that the preload is pushed into the atria? When we intubate or use a BVM and initiate positive pressure ventilation you loose the "SUCK" and reduces the preload consequently lowering the blood pressure? Furthermore are there any objective studies not funded by the manufacturer of the ITD that prove its efficacy?

    I think the physiology in the video is wrong. He states that negative intrathoracic pressure increases the pressure on the vena cava and "drives" blood to the heart. What happens is that during inspiration the pressure in the right atrium drops and makes it easier for the heart to fill. A negative pressure in the thorax doesnt put pressure on the vena cava. What he illustrates with the syringe is the pressure from the atmosphere on the thoracic wall.

    The only cure to sleep apnea is double jaw advancement surgery with CCW movement. Waiting to expand my jaw with MSE and MSDO before I get the surgery and finally cure this disease. I can't sleep without CPAP anymore, it's night and day difference. I recommend you use a nasal tube only and once u get ur ideal pressure tape your mouth shut.

    I was confused too but I watched it again and I think he just forgets to mention that in CHF patients specifically they are trying to reduce preload so like he said, the heart can play "catch up" a little bit. It is a little odd considering the title of the video doesn't even mention that. It also makes me question why a cpap would be used for sleep apnea in an otherwise healthy patient then, when it seems like what they would need is bipap.

    CHF is congestive heart failure. You would want to reduce blood pressure with CHF, as higher blood pressure aggravates the condition. So by reducing preload you are taking some of that pressure off the heart. Ideal for CHF, but not sure about a CPAP patient. I think for OSA, you would want a functioning respiratory pump.
