Product Features

Packed with every feature ResMed offers, the VPAP series starts out with a wider pressure range, accommodating pressures from 3cm to 25cm H20 and supports five modes of operation (Spontaneous, Timed, ST, Vauto, and CPAP). In addition to ventilator synchronization, the VPAP ST supports ResMed's Easy-Breathe Technology, TiControl, Vsync, and new optional Humidaire H4i Heated Humidifier.

When non-invasive ventilation is required, ResMed offers three modes: Spontaneous, Spontaneous/Timed, and Timed. The VPAP ST and T modes provide a customizable backup rates to force a switch from exhalation to inhalation. Spontaneous mode simply reacts from the lack of breath with no time interval. Ventilated therapy can now take advantage of Easy Breathe technology.

VAuto is engineered to prevent obstructions before they occur by responding quickly and accurately to flow limitations. The algorithm works on a breath per breath basis and automatically adjusts to find the lowest required pressure needed to prevent most snoring and apnea events. VAuto is so consistent in response to events it often adjusts on the very next breath after a flow limitation or obstruction.

TiControl allows CPAP users to set minimum and maximum inspiratory time limits that provide a range to accommodate treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and respiratory conditions. ResMed has also included five trigger and cycle settings that help manage patient inhalation and exhalation patterns. Vsync is unique to the VPAP Series that automatically minimizes pressure loss due to mask leaks. All three technologies help regulate IPAP/EPAP intervals through monitoring the breathing cycle (BPM) and Rise time.

Enjoy the new Easy-Breathe technology which offers smoother, comfortable pressure by synchronizing with the CPAP user's normal breathing patterns, allowing for a natural and stable breath. Easy-Breathe Technology imitates normal respiration that makes breathing more comfortable than traditional CPAP or BiLevel machines. The transition from EPAP to IPAP pressures is gentle and slides into an exhalation curve that feels more natural. The final result is a VPAP machine that is intuitive, effective and produces only 26dB decibels at 10cmh20 at a distance of 1 meter.

Word of Caution to RESmed S8 and S8 II Machine Users

YOU MUST USE THE DC-24 Converter For ResMed when drawing power directly from a DC battery source (no inverter and no humidifier). Failure to do so can result in damage to your CPAP. ResMed S8 machines with a Humidaire heated humidifier (h3i and H4i) require a pure AC power source in order for the humidifier to work properly. The Humidiare humidifier is disabled when using the DC-24 Converter For S8 Machines. You will need the DC to AC Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter to operate both.
