Before and after sleep apnea therapy

Exactly how successful independent and regular training with the therapeutic didgeridoo is depends on how regularly this is practiced. This can be determined in a follow up examination in a sleep laboratory or at home on an outpatient basis. Training with the therapeutic instrument carries no risk, but a great opportunity if you want to become active yourself to cure the sleep apnea syndrome!

Important
The duration of therapy (home training) depends on the degree of apnea and snoring of a client. These therapy successes can only be achieved with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), not with central sleep apnea (ZSA).

At the end of the therapy you will have the opportunity to get acquainted with the finger as well as the wrist pulse oximeter. These Pulox devices measure arterial oxygen saturation in the blood and heart rate (pulse rate). Oxygen saturation is an important parameter for assessing respiratory function. These devices can be purchased on site if needed.

Addresses of doctors, clinics and sleep laboratories

It is important that you are well informed. If you are not sure if you have sleep apnea syndrome, it is recommended that you see your primary care physician or contact one of the listed physicians or clinics for diagnostic evaluation. They can diagnose a nocturnal breathing disorder. Patients are given a small device (pulse oximetry device) the size of a smartphone, take it home and sleep comfortably in their own bed while the recordings run. The pulse oximetry device can measure arterial blood oxygen saturation, as well as detect breathing cessations. You can also take an overnight snoring self test on your smartphone beforehand. - Good cooperation between doctors, pneumologists, clinics and clients/patients is very important to PRODIDGERIDOO.

Here you will find addresses of doctors, pulmonologists and clinics in your area (Switzerland).
