APAP Machines (Auto)

Automatic Positive Airway Pressure or otherwise abbreviated as Auto PAP or APAP is medically designed to treat obstructive sleep apnea.

APAP machines are not to be mistaken with CPAP machines which are more commonly known as fixed pressure machines. The advanced technology in APAP machines are defined by their complex algorithms which identify when the airway becomes blocked or when the airflow in the airway becomes limited. Once the Automatic CPAP detects this breathing irregularity it will use its advanced algorithm to adjust the pressure until it is satisfied that the airway is clear and unobstructed. There are many factors that contribute to the severity of sleep apnoea, the automatic algorithm performs as a breath by breath analysis to determine how much air pressure is required for both effective treatment and peaceful uninterrupted sleep.

CPAP Victoria has an extensive range of APAP machines from leading manufactures such as Fisher and Paykel, ResMed and Philips Respironics.
