C-PAP / Bi-PAP

C-PAP or Continuous Positive Airway Pressure is the most popular treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). It uses air pressure generated by a machine delivered through a tube into a mask that fits over the nose or mouth. The pressure is adjustable.

Bi-PAP refers to bi-level or two level positive airway pressure. As in C-PAP, air is sent through a tube into a mask that fits over the nose. While C-PAP generally delivers a single pressure, Bi-PAP delivers inhale pressure and exhale pressure. Bi-PAP is often used with individuals who need extra respiratory support. It is usually prescribed for patients with Congestive Heart Failure, Coronary Artery Disease, Pulmonary, Neurological and Neuromuscular disorders. Most Bi-PAP units offer the humidifier option to prevent drying of the mucous membranes. Both machines are available in portable versions which can be transported very easily. They are about the size of a lunch box. Most of them are designed to be silent so as not to disturb the sleeper.

  • Good leak composition
  • Adjustable rise time
  • Detailed monitoring,
  • Appropriate modes,
  • Suitable for Adult / Pediatric use
