Auto Adjusting CPAP Machine Overview
Auto Adjusting CPAP machines or APAPs adjust to your ideal pressure on a breath by breath basis. They can accommodate pressure changes from weight gain or loss, alcohol before bed and changing sleeping positions during sleep. They are very popular among savvy online shoppers for their advanced air flow settings and their support of therapy tracking software, off grid power options and heated humidification.

- Why might I prefer an APAP machine?
- Some CPAP users find it more pleasant to breathe with an APAP than with CPAP. The pressure delivered by an APAP machine automatically changes as needed to deliver the minimal pressure required to maintain the airway. The pressure delivered by a CPAP machine is set to a single pressure, the highest necessary to keep the airway open as determined during the sleep study. This is the case even when the higher pressure is needed only a fraction of the time.
- What is the difference between C-Flex and A-flex?
- C-flex drops the pressure on exhale only. A-flex drops the pressure on the exhale but also helps with the transition from inhale to exhale.
