護理師教導一位睡眠呼吸中止症病人使用 CPAP 機器。病人說出下列哪句話代表他已理解？
A nurse is teaching a client about the use of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine for sleep apnea. Which statement by the client indicates understanding?
- AI must clean the mask and tubing daily to prevent infection✓ 正解我必須每天清潔面罩和管路以預防感染
- BI can stop using the machine if I feel better after a week如果我感覺好轉一週後，我可以停用機器
- CI will wear the mask only when I feel particularly tired我只在特別疲倦時才戴面罩
- DI should use petroleum jelly on the mask seal to prevent leaks我應該在面罩密封處塗抹凡士林以防止洩漏
— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
CPAP 機器需每晚睡覺時佩戴，清潔保養至關重要。每日清潔面罩與管路可防止細菌滋生與過敏原堆積，確保治療效果。其他選項皆為錯誤的使用習慣，特別是 petroleum jelly 會損害矽膠面罩，且此為慢性病管理，不可隨意停用。
Regularly cleaning the mask and tubing daily is essential to prevent bacterial growth and skin breakdown, ensuring effective therapy. Since sleep apnea is a chronic condition, the device must be used consistently every night rather than only when symptoms appear.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國 CPAP 治療多由呼吸治療師（RT）監測數據，台灣多由胸腔內科醫師或睡眠中心個管師負責管理。
