Philips Respironics BiPAP autoSV and BiPAP autoSV Advanced

BiPAP autoSV with Encore Pro SmartCard

The BiPAP autoSV sleep therapy system is specifically designed to be the best choice for managing complicated sleep-disordered breathing patients. It combines a number of technologies to recognize and react to changing pressure needs, and it's clinically proven to treat obstructive, central and complex apneas and hypopneas, along with periodic breathing.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
OSA is the absence of airflow due to an occlusion in the upper airway that lasts at least 10 seconds in spite of continual effort to breathe. Severity is measured by the Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI) - the number of episodes per hour of sleep.

Central Sleep Apnea
Central Sleep Apnea is a pattern of breathing characterized by a normal deep inspiratory cycle interchanged with complete cessation of breathing. It is typically caused by problems with how the brain controls breathing rather than an occlusion of the airway.

Complex Sleep Apnea
Complex sleep apnea is a condition that occurs when a patient is identified as having OSA, but with the application of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) to eliminate the OSA, the patient develops Central Sleep Apnea. The cause of complex sleep apnea is not known at this time.

Periodic Breathing
Periodic breathing is defined as alternating periods of hyperventilation with waxing/waning tidal volume and periods of central hypopneas or apneas. There are many forms of periodic breathing, one of which is Cheyne-Stokes Respiration (CSR). CSR is characterized by a cyclic pattern of waxing and waning during periods of apnea, and deep, rapid breathing.

 

BiPAP autoSV Advanced further simplifies management of complicated sleep apnea.

BiPAP autoSV Advanced blends proven technologies to make treatment and management of complicated sleep apnea cases easier and more effective. The first thing you’ll notice is how auto EPAP plus an advanced back-up rate make titration simpler. Then how our sophisticated servo ventilation algorithm continually monitors and adjusts to changing patient therapy needs. To round it out, our renowned Bi-Flex technology helps to assure patient comfort and helps to promote long-term compliance. It all adds up to advanced thinking that helps you make the complex quite a bit simpler.
