Sleep apnea CPAP treatment - Guide for Dutch-speaking patients in Belgium

This page is primarily designed for Dutch-speaking residents of Belgium (Flanders, Brussels) searching for information on slaapapneu (sleep apnea) and CPAP treatment. The full guide is available in Dutch above. Below is an English summary.

What is sleep apnea?

Obstructive sleep apnea is a chronic condition in which breathing repeatedly stops during sleep. CPAP therapy - which keeps your airways open with gentle pressurised air - is the gold-standard, first-line treatment for this condition.
