Bilevel, BiPAP & CPAP Machines

Auto CPAP/APAP Machines

A BiPAP machine, short for Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure, is a type of positive airway pressure device used in the treatment of sleep-related breathing disorders such as sleep apnea. Unlike CPAP machines that deliver a continuous pressure, BiPAP machines provide two levels of pressure: a higher pressure during inhalation (IPAP) and a lower pressure during exhalation (EPAP), which can be more comfortable for some users. There are several variations of BiPAP machines tailored to specific needs. Auto BiPAP machines adjust pressure levels automatically based on the user's breathing patterns throughout the night, ensuring optimal therapy without manual adjustments. BiPAP ST (Spontaneous/Timed) machines provide a set number of breaths per minute in addition to the IPAP and EPAP pressures, suitable for users with respiratory conditions requiring additional support. BiPAP ST-A (Spontaneous/Timed-Auto) machines offer both spontaneous and timed breath delivery, with automatic adjustments based on the user's respiratory patterns. Finally, Adaptive Servo-Ventilation (ASV) BiPAP machines are designed for individuals with complex sleep apnea or central sleep apnea, adjusting pressure levels to maintain a stable breathing pattern and prevent apneas. Each type of BiPAP machine provides unique features to cater to different respiratory needs, ensuring effective treatment and improved sleep quality for users with sleep-related breathing disorders.
