Provent® 30-Night Starter Pack
Provent
Provent Sleep Apnea Therapy is a disposable, nightly-use nasal device placed just inside the nostrils and held securely in place with hypoallergenic adhesive.
People adapt to Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP) therapy, and breathing with the Provent Nasal Device, at their own pace. It may take a little getting used to. The Provent 30-Day Starter Kit helps new users acclimate to Provent Therapy by gradually increasing EPAP resistance over the first several nights of use.
This item requires a prescription.

Product Description
Provent Sleep Therapy is a clinically proven treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Provent Therapy is an FDA cleared, prescription-only device that utilizes nasal EPAP (expiratory positive airway pressure) to treat all levels of severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
This 30-night treatment pack includes 30 individually wrapped sets of Provent adhesives. If this is your first time using Provent, the manufacturer suggests you start with this starter kit. The 30-day Starter Kit is divided in to 3 phases — Phase 1 Low Resistance Patches, Phase 2 Medium Resistance Patches, and Phase 3 Standard Resistance Patches. Studies have shown that Provent users who begin with the Starter Kit have an easier time getting used to Provent Therapy.
The standard treatment pack is available here.

Specifications
Provent is the Clinically Proven CPAP Alternative
The Provent device has been evaluated in multiple published studies including a 19 center, randomized controlled trial published in the journal SLEEP. Provent Sleep Apnea Therapy may be an ideal treatment option for your patients who have rejected or are non-compliant with CPAP, or who just prefer an alternative sleep therapy treatment that doesn’t require the inconvenience of masks and machines.
Provent Works Across All OSA Severities1
Provent Therapy safely and effectively treats mild, moderate and severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), showing significant improvement in AHI across all severities (P 55% in all severities.
