Description
Average Volume Assured Pressure Support (AVAPS)
The AVAPS feature is designed to provide consistent tidal volumes by automatically adjusting the pressure support. This ensures that the user receives an adequate and consistent amount of air with each breath, tailored to their specific needs. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with varying respiratory needs or those with conditions like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or neuromuscular diseases, where maintaining a stable tidal volume is crucial.
Auto-Adjusting EPAP
The DreamStation BiPAP AVAPS continuously monitors the user’s breathing and adjusts the Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP) to keep the airway open. By maintaining appropriate EPAP levels, the device helps prevent obstructive sleep apnea events, ensuring uninterrupted breathing throughout the night.
Flex Comfort Technology
Philips’ Flex Comfort Technology provides pressure relief during exhalation. This feature makes it easier and more comfortable for the user to breathe out against the pressure, enhancing overall comfort and compliance with the therapy.
Advanced Event Detection
The device is equipped with advanced sensors and algorithms that detect a wide range of respiratory events, including obstructive apneas, central apneas, hypopneas, and periodic breathing. The machine responds to these events by adjusting pressure levels to minimize their occurrence and optimize the effectiveness of the therapy.
User-Friendly Interface
The device features a color LCD screen with an intuitive menu system, making it easy for users to navigate and adjust settings. The interface provides clear information about therapy parameters, ensuring that users can manage their treatment effectively.
