New CPAP Channel

Post by mikemoran » Wed Oct 19, 2005 7:53 am

Contact your local Cable and Satellite provider for the new NoseAIR channel geared towards those of us who enjoy the CPAP Lifestyle. This channel will feature special programming specifically tailored for the sleep challenged. Reaching for your remote will become as natural as donning your mask with the fun filled season we have in store for you. Here is a sample of program listings to help you pick your NoseAIR as your favorite channel.

America’s Funniest Sleep Lab Videos We have scoured the country to find those wacky pranksters that make getting a sleep study so much fun. Watch them as they hook patients up to multiple webs of monitors and then ask if they have to go to the bathroom. You’ll fall over laughing as they burst in on patients to tighten down straps just as they have fallen asleep. Not to give away the surprise but let me just say hand and a bowl of warm water. What will these trained professionals think of next? Stay tuned.

PAPYTown with Hozo the Clown What better way to introduce your children to the wonderful world of CPAP than this friendly scamp. His Red Nasal mask lets kids of all ages know that fun is around the corner. Hozo and his sidekick Puffy the Blower will show them that a CPAP isn’t just for blowing up Mommy or Daddy. Just make sure the little ones haven’t turned your CPAP into a Mega Bubble Blower before going to bed.

AHI: Sandusky Full time Sleep Lab Tech and part time detective Hank Lissome will explore a new mystery every week. The first episode revolves around a Serial Titrator who has been breaking into houses in a small bedroom community and changing everyone’s pressure settings. Watch Hank’s intrepid team track down the source of the clinician’s manual that allowed this maniac to perform his unlawful self therapy,

Better Hose and Garden A Do-It-Yourself show for all of us closet mask designers and living lab rats. Our own Mr. Wheezer will dole out the helpful hints as well as product reviews to enhance our Sleepstyle. This show is worth it just for the product reviews alone. Which is the best brand of pantyhose for that extra strap? Panty liners or Moleskin for that Comfort Curve? He will also explore alternative uses for your CPAP, helping you to make the most out of your therapy dollars. Don’t miss the “How to spray paint your house in forty winks” episode.

NASCAIR High performance CPAPing, the new American pastime. This sport centers around getting the numbers down. Watch as professional titrators tweak their pressures to drive to the lowest AHI. You will thrill to the middle of the night interface changes to catch that errant leak. See both stock and custom machines battle bed to bed throughout the course of the series. From turbo charged C-Flex to specialized humidifier mixes you will be there in the action. Who will be your favorite professional sleeper?

These and so much more coming soon. So call your television provider and demand your NoseAIR today.

CPAP JUNKYARD WARS -- Two teams first compete in a DME warehouse of obselete (but still shipping) equipment to see who can construct the best machine and mask before sundown. Next the team moves to a head-to-head and bed-to-bedside competition where the actual peformance is put to the test. Winner is the team with the lowest AHI.

Look for the season finale where teams from around the world compete for the grandchampionship!

TRADING MASKS -- Two CPAP users per week, friends or relatives, are given a chance to spend a weekend with each other's mask and machine. Each is given the assitance of a proffessional lab rat to help customize the equipment. At the end of the weekend the mask is returned to the original owner. Some will be pleasantly surprised at what has been done with their masks while others will be horrified!

The season kicks off with Frank painting chickens on one user's machine, while the other is coated in hay!

(BTW, I met Frank a couple of weeks ago in person and spent an hour with him. He's a riot! )

Desperate Hoseheads -- now renamed Desperate HoseWives (see above for show details)
INHALATION! (An alien invasion ... or is it?)
The West Wing of the House -- a lot of maneuvering goes on behind closed bedroom doors with many late-night sessions

Threshold of Sleep -- something is taking people over when they are in the twilight between wake and sleep

Unfortunately our lawyers tell us we have to cancel plans or change names because NUMB3RS is already taken. It was supposed to be about a group of RT's who are trying to solve baffling cases of CPAP-resistant apnea, attempting to bring the AHI down to a safe number. They are aided by the brilliant younger brother of one of the lead RT's -- a genius lab rat.
