Molecules will try to adopt the most stable conformation that minimizes strain. For cyclohexane, C 6 H 12, this would be the chair conformation. Letâs see why. If cyclohexane was planar, its structure would look like the picture to the left.
CPAP mask â There are many types of C-PAP masks. There are masks that just cover the nose (nasal cpap mask), and masks that cover just the mouth (oral masks), and of course, nasal-oral masks. There are also masks that are attached to oral appliance mouth devices.
At first, CPAP patients should be monitored in a sleep lab to determine the appropriate amount of air pressure for them. The first few nights on CPAP tend to be difficult, with patients experiencing less sleep. Many patients at first find the mask uncomfortable, claustrophobic or embarrassing. CPAP is not a cure and must be used every night for life. Non-compliant patients experience a full return of obstructive sleep apnea and related symptoms.
