Respironics’ BiPAP® Auto with Bi-Flex® is the first auto-adjusting bi-level positive airway pressure system for adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Designed with the most challenging patients in mind. BiPAP Auto is the only sleep system that offers patented Bi-Flex and Digital Auto-Trak™ technologies, along with auto titration, Respironics Encore® Pro SmartCard® compatibility and advanced data reporting. Respironics’ BiPAP® Auto with Bi-Flex® is the first auto-adjusting bi-level positive airway pressure system for adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
The BiPAP Auto with Bi-Flex comes complete with Respironics Encore Pro SmartCard technology. Now BiPAP Auto and the SmartCard record events such as snores, apneas and hypopneas. That gives you even more insight into your therapy. The SmartCard also records the date, time, ramp usage and duration of each BiPAP Auto use. When combined with the Encore Pro software, the usage data can be downloaded and viewed. The SmartCard can also transfer the prescribed pressure settings to the device. The BiPAP Auto with Bi-Flex also features the Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ). Patients can periodically complete the questionnaire and record quality-of-life data on the SmartCard. This data, along with Encore Pros enhanced reporting capabilities and longer-term monitoring, can be used as part of an overall compliance assessment.
C-Flex offers a more comfortable CPAP experience by taking the work out of exhalation. But Bi-Flex takes our Flex technology to new levels, offering the ultimate in therapy comfort, especially for those who are hard-to-treat. Bi-Flex softens the airflow in inhalation and exhalation, making breathing more natural and unbelievably more comfortable. In the Bi-Flex mode, the amount of pressure relief at the end of inhalation and at the beginning of exhalation is established. User adjustable settings of 1, 2 or 3 provide progressively increased pressure relief. Bi-Flex. Breathing is Believing. Cycling through the patient-adjustable Bi-Flex settings of 1, 2 or 3 will provide progressively increased pressure relief.
Bi-Flex Digital Auto-Trak Sensitivity. Digital Auto-Trak Sensitivity and Bi-Flex work together to deliver more natural and unbelievably comfortable therapy. Digital Auto-Trak Sensitivity triggers the BiPAP Auto to cycle between inspiratory and expiratory pressures based onyour breathing rhythm. It also automatically adjusts the variable trigger and cycle thresholds to maintain optimum performance in the presence of any leaks and ensures optimum system response with every breath.
