Long Term Use of CPAP

Posted by Jack Owen on December 02, 1997 at 06:41:43:

Has there been any studies or any other information available if the long term use of CPAP theraphy can be detrimental to the respiratory system. I have successfully used CPAP for over 4 years and have adapted well to its use, and experience no bad side effects except a drippy nose and occasional nose bleed. Any information will be appreciated.
