Features of Auto BiPAP Machine
EZ-Start
EZ-Start is an acclimation algorithm for Fixed and Auto CPAP. It can help patients gradually adapt to their prescribed level of therapy using an innovative pressure acclimation algorithm with automatic, personalized adjustments to CPAP pressure over the first 30 days.
FLEX
Flex technology is a comfort feature that provides pressure relief during therapy. C-Flex was clinically shown to increase nightly usage by 1 hour and 42 minutes compared to traditional CPAP therapy.
SmartRamp
SmartRamp utilizes an Auto titrating algorithm during the ramp period which allows patients the ability to stay at lower pressures during the ramp period, to improve their acclimation to therapy.
CPAP-Check
A fixed CPAP algorithm that recognizes long term changes in patient’s pressure needs and automatically adjusts the fixed pressure to improve treatment. This can save the clinician time since the pressures are changed automatically.
What To Buy with Dreamstation Auto BiPAP Machine?
Why Choose Dreamstation Auto BiPAP?
Compatibility Tips
The DreamStation machines must be used with DreamStation filters and accessories. Accessories for other machines, even other machines by Respironics, are not compatible and will not work with the DreamStation. See the "Replacement Parts" page for the DreamStation machine to see compatible replacement parts and accessories
Hose Tips
If the optional humidifier is not purchased, the DreamStation will come with a standard, non-heated 15mm hose. The machine also has a setting for a larger 22mm hose if desired. If the heated humidifier and heated tube are purchased with the machine, then the 15mm heated hose will be included in place of the standard tube. If the heated tube is connected, the machine will automatically change the tube setting to 15mm and it cannot be adjusted. Ensure the correct tube setting is selected for the hose being used so that effective therapy is provided. If the optional heated tube is purchased, it should be washed regularly with warm water and a mild soap. Ensure the tube and all connections are completely dry before use. If the humidifier is not being used, the heated tube can be connected directly to the machine, though it will not heat
Filter Tips
The DreamStation will come with the dark blue reusable filter installed, and the lighter blue disposable filter uninstalled. To attach the disposable filter to the reusable filter, place it underneath the reusable filter with the slotted side facing up, and the longer edge facing the side of the reusable filter that faces the outside of the machine. Line up the filters and press the reusable filter down to connect the two together, then slide the combined filters into the machine.
Humidifier Tips
The optional humidifier has replaceable parts such as the dry box assembly, lid seal, and dry box seals that should be replaced if damaged or worn. See the replacement parts section of this page to view all available parts. The humidifier chamber is dishwasher safe and should be washed regularly to avoid mineral deposits and ensure cleanliness. When removing the water chamber and placing back in the humidifier, carefully use both hands to hold the chamber steady to avoid spilling of water into the humidifier or machine. Do not exceed the max fill lines on the chamber or water may escape out of the chamber
Power Supply and DC Cable Tips
The 80 watt power supply included with the DreamStation machine will power the optional heated humidifier and heated tube. The power supply is found behind the divider inside the carry bag with the look and hoop fasteners. The DreamStation power supply is the only power supply that will work with the DreamStation machines. Power supplies for other machines including previous Respironics machines, are not compatible. Similarly, the DreamStation-specific DC cable is the only DC cable compatible with the DreamStation machines, other DC cables will not work.
