Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy is a clinical treatment for moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea. The forced air delivered by Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices prevent episode of airway collapse that blocks the breathing in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and other related problems. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is one of the most common treatment for people suffering from sleep apnea.
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is also used in infants and pediatric patients suffering from breathing disorders. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) systems include a machine, flexible tube and a mask.The tube connects the machine to the mask. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) masks are designed to cover only the nose or both the nose and the mouth. Different types of masks are available in market, including nasal masks, full face mask, pediatric masks and nasal pillow masks.

In 2016, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), globally an estimated 1.9 billion adults above the age of 18 years were overweight, out of which 650 million were obese. Also, according to data published at the ATS 2018 International Conference, an estimated 1 billion people globally suffer from sleep apnea. This increase in number of patients suffering from sleep apnea, combined with rise in obese population, is projected to fuel the demand for sleep apnea treatment devices including CPAP masks.
These factors are anticipated to drive the growth of the global CPAP masks market during 2019-2026. In 2018, Koninklijke Philips N.V. announced the launch of Dreamwear full mask with a goal of providing better option for sleep apnea patients. In 2017, ResMed announced the U.S. FDA approval for its Airmini, the world’s smallest CPAP device.
These technological advances in the Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices and masks by market players, is anticipated to fuel the adoption of CPAP masks, and subsequently drive the growth of the global Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) masks market during the forecast period.
However, lack of patients suffering from sleep apnea undergoing treatment, especially in emerging countries, combined with lower adherence to treatment, are some of the major factors restraining the growth of the global CPAP masks market.
Some of the major companies that are present in the global market of CPAP masks are AG industries, Koninklijke Philips N.V., ResMed, Fischer Paykel healthcare Ltd, Medline industries, Inc., KOIKE MEDICAL CO., LTD, DeVilbiss Healthcare LLC, Sunset Healthcare Solutions Inc., Sarnova, Inc., Teleflex Incorporated and other players.
