WVXU: Find your CPAP annoying? UC researchers are working on a more comfortable device

Dr. Liran Oren is leading a research team at the University of Cincinnati developing a VortexPAP machine that takes advantage of vortex airflow technology.

It has a minimalistic design that is less intrusive and barely touches the patient’s face.
