With
the release of the System One Generation BIPAP
Auto, Philips Respironics continues its line of
small, quiet, compact BIPAP devices, with added
features such as Resistance Control
- a feature that allows the device to take into
consideration the mask-type being used, when
delivering set pressures. The
System One generation BIPAP also ushered in Advanced
Event Detection - a feature which adds to
the algorithm the ability to address abnormal
pressure changes, and breathing patterns.
The
DS760 BIPAP Auto has two modes of operation,
standard BIPAP mode, and Auto titration mode,
which allows the device to automatically adjust
the pressure in such a way to eliminate any apnea
or hypopnea (shallow breathing) events. This is
the ideal device for those individuals who are
unsure of their therapeutic pressure.
As
with previous generations of Respironics BIPAP,
the pressure
range is 4cm-25cm h20. Dimensions on the System
one devices are 6.5" x 5 " x 4" and
weigh in at just over 2 lbs (without heated
humidifier). The
System One Series BIPAP also keeps the
Digital Auto-Trak technology on-board. Auto-Trak increases
comfort by sensing the change in flow that
represents the start, or end of a breath, and
allows the device to react quickly to changes with
appropriate pressures.
This unit can run on any voltage from
110-240V, and is capable of running off a 12volt
power source. The DS760 BIPAP Auto has
comprehensive data recording/reporting, which
shows not only basic compliance information, but
also details such as AHI, and leak rates, which
are essential in gauging the efficiency of the
device. BIFLEX is also available with this model, which
allows for a smoother 'rounding' transitional
phase (period of time between breaths); This feature helps the BIPAP feel more
like your natural breathing pattern.
***The
only functional difference between the DS750, and
the DS760 BIPAP Auto is the ability of the DS760
to adapt to the thermal tubing option, which is
available on this page.
