Icon CPAP Machine
Fisher &
Paykel of Auckland, New Zealand has announced the up
coming released a new line of CPAP machines that smudge the line
between medical devices and consumer products. The ICON line
features a built-in alarm clock and an mp3 player, along with all
the company's latest CPAP technology.
The ICON range
integrates Fisher & Paykel Healthcare’s leading
technologies into stylish, compact and intelligent devices to
deliver a better night’s sleep for OSA patients. The F&P
ICON also includes a digital clock, alarm and music playing
capabilities to enhance patient adaptation to CPAP
therapy.
"The ICON combines both
exceptional style and technology to fit unobtrusively into the home
setting. It has a very small footprint and incorporates our
innovative technologies including, SmartStick, ThermoSmart and
SensAwake", commented Michael Daniell, Fisher & Paykel
Healthcare’s Chief Executive Officer.
The product range spans three models; Auto, Premo
and Novo. The Auto detects interruptions to normal breathing and
provides the appropriate positive airway pressure to meet the
breath-by-breath needs of the patient with full efficacy and
compliance reporting. The Premo model provides fixed pressure
therapy with efficacy and compliance reporting, while the Novo
provides basic compliance reporting.
The ICON range also includes Fisher & Paykel’s
InfoSmart technologies, which will provide a full range of
communication and compliance reporting options.
