• When to Use IntelliPAP CPAP Machine?

  Intended Use
  
  The DeVilbiss IntelliPAP Model DV54 Series AutoAdjust CPAP is intended for use in treating OSA in spontaneously breathing patients 30 Kg (66 lbs) and above by means of application of positive air pressure. The device is to be used in home and clinical environments.
  
  Indications For Use (Optional Heated Humidifier)
  
  Use on the advice and prescription of a licensed physician to help relieve the symptoms of dryness of the throat, nasal passages and the mouth, which are common with positive airway pressure therapy. This is especially true in dry climates and during the cold season when humidity in the air is typically lower than at other times.

How to Operate DV54D CPAP Machine?

System Assembly

• Without Heated Humidification

• 1. Locate the air supply port and heater power connector on the bottom of the IntelliPAP device. Ensure that each opening has the appropriate soft cover securely attached.
  2. Place the IntelliPAP on a stable surface such as a nightstand or table. If you wish, you may also place the device on the floor at the bedside, being careful to place the unit where it won’t be kicked or stepped on. Ensure that the air inlet in the back of the device is not blocked by anything such as curtains or bedding.
• Note: Never place the IntelliPAP system on a soft surface such as a bed or couch during operation.



 

• With Heated Humidification


• If your system includes a humidifier
  1. Locate the heater power connector on the bottom of the device. Remove the connector cover and insert it into the store opening at the bottom of the humidifier cradle.
  2. Locate the air supply port at the bottom of the device. Remove the port plug and insert it into the air supply port in the back of the device.
  3. Place the device onto a humidifier cradle and click into place.
  4. Fill a clean chamber to fill line with distilled water and insert it into the cradle.
  Note: Always use distilled water to avoid mineral buildup inside the chamber. Do not overfill.
  Caution: The height of the IntelliPAP must be lower than the mask when using a humidifier to prevent water from getting into mask. 
  
  Operation
  1. Fully insert the power cord into the back of the device. Plug the other end of the power cord into the AC wall outlet.
  2. Attach air supply tubing to the air supply port in the back of the device.
  3. Prepare the mask (supplied by your equipment provider) by referring to the mask’s instruction guide.
  4. Connect the air supply tubing to the mask.
  Note: The air supply tubing supplied with the device is specially designed to prevent kinking and allow you to receive optimal airflow. Use only the 22 mm diameter, smooth-bore, kink-resistant tubing supplied with this device or an air supply tubing recommended by your equipment provider.
  
  Start-up
  Put on your mask and press the ON/OFF button on the keypad or put on your CPAP mask and take a few breaths to turn on airflow automatically. The pressure in your mask will rise to the set pressure in about 10 seconds.
  
  Note:If the device does not automatically start after taking 2-3 breaths, this feature may have been disabled. If Auto ON/ OFF is disabled, you must manually press the ON/OFF button to start and stop the device. The keypad display shows the actual mask pressure while the device is in use. Because this is the actual pressure, the device pressure reading may vary slightly as you breathe. If your DeVilbiss IntelliPAP system includes a humidifier, its heater controls and status are displayed.
  
  Controlling the Humidity (optional)
  • The heater setting can be adjusted within a range of 1 to 10.
  • The optimum temperature setting is dependent on the ambient temperature and humidity of your room.
  • If your room temperature is low and/or the relative humidity is high, then a lower temperature setting may be necessary to prevent excess condensation in the air supply tubing
  • If the room temperature is high and/or the relative humidity is low, then a higher temperature setting may be necessary for optimum comfort.
  • The heater setting of 1 results in a heater plate temperature of approximately 84°F (29°C).
  • The heater setting of 10 results in a heater plate temperature of approximately 149°F (65°C).
  Note: Always allow at least 10 minutes of the cooling time after turning the device off before removing the water chamber from the humidifier cradle.
