It helps maintain open airways during sleep. Option D

It helps to maintain an open airway during sleep by providing a steady, regulated stream of air through a mask. This treatment is essential for enhancing oxygen flow, preventing breathing disruptions that are typical of sleep apnea episodes, and encouraging deeper, more peaceful sleep.

It's a good intervention for people who have respiratory problems when they sleep because, in contrast to the other options, it maintains airway pressure instead of lowering it.
