Answer: (A)

CPAP refers to a therapy that delivers a steady stream of pressurized air to keep the airway open during sleep. This is commonly used for obstructive sleep apnea, helping prevent airway collapse and improve breathing at night. The acronym stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. The other options aren’t recognized medical terms for CPAP and don’t describe this airway-support device.
