PR System One REMstar Pro CPAP AutoIQ

AutoIQ technology takes the PR System One REMstar Pro CPAP Machine with C-Flex Plus to a smarter level. This feature offers up to 30 nights of auto adjusting capability, during which time the system works as an Auto CPAP delivering an adaptive pressure on a breath by breath basis. An Auto-Trial phase must be a minimum of 3 nights in length. After an initial Auto-Trial period as set the system switches to Auto-Check Phase and functions as a CPAP delivering the pressure that the patient was at or below 90% of the time. The Auto-Check Phase continuously verifies pressure requirements and makes adjustments after every 30 hours of use providing the user with more effective pressure levels over time.

Please note: This is not an Auto CPAP Machine. It functions as an Auto CPAP during Auto-Trial Phases and switches to CPAP mode during Auto-Check Phase.

NOTE: the Heated Humidifier is included in the price of this machine.

AutoIQ Technology

AutoIQ has two phases: Auto-Trial Phase and Auto-Check Phase.

Auto-Trial Phase

Auto-Trial Phase monitors and adjusts pressure on a breath by breath basis for up to 30 nights. The goal of the Auto-Trial Phase is to use breathing pattern data to identify the ideal pressure needed. At the end of a trial period, the machine is automatically set to a pressure that the patient was at or below 90% of the time.

All 30 nights do not need to be used at one time. A minimum of 3 nights can be used to complete an Auto-Trial Phase. The remaining nights can be used at any time in the future.

Every time the Auto-Trial Phase is used, the machine will use the most recent Auto-Trial Phase data to set the ideal pressure.

Auto-Check Phase

Once an Auto-Trial Phase is complete, the AutoIQ mode transitions to Auto-Check Phase. Every 30 hours the machine checks if a pressure adjustment is needed based on breathing events.

If a pressure adjustment is needed, the machine will automatically adjust by 1 cm/H2O up or down. Every 30 hours the machine will continue to track and adapt pressure as needed in 1 cm/H20 increments, staying within an upper and lower limit of 3 cm/H2O of the original set pressure. If a pressure change is not needed, the machine will stay at the current pressure.

Here is an example of how the Auto-Check Phase works:

If the ideal pressure after the Auto-Trial Phase was 10 cm/H2O and after 30 hours of use Auto-Check Phase data indicated the pressure needed to be raised, the machine would automatically change the pressure to 11 cm/H2O. If the pressure needed to be lowered, the machine would automatically change to 9 cm/H2O. If no pressure adjustment was needed, the pressure would stay at 10 cm/H2O. The Auto-Check Phase would continue every 30 hours to monitor and adjust the pressure as needed. However, the pressure would not be raised or lowered more than 3 cm/H2O of the original pressure. Using the original pressure of 10cm/H2O, the machine would not be lowered past 7 cm/H2O and would not be raised past 13 cm/H2O.

If the machine is placed back into Auto-Trial Phase mode to determine a new ideal pressure, the Auto-Check Phase would monitor and change pressure as needed every 30 hours, staying within 3 cm/H2O of the new ideal pressure.

The machine does not need to be set on Auto-Check Phase. It can be placed on straight CPAP mode, where no pressure checks or adjustments are made.

What is the Respiratory Distress Index? The RDI is used to determine the severity of sleep apnea. The index value is determined based on the number of apneas, hypopneas, and respiratory event-related arousal (RERAs) that occur per hour of sleep.

Encore Data Management and Reporting

The PR System One monitors and tracks therapy progress. It uses a SD card to capture advanced data such as leak rate and AHI (Apnea/Hypopnea Index). This data can be accessed through the "Info" menu on the machine's display. The PR System One records and displays both 7 and 30 day data averages.

To view more detailed data and to monitor trends over time, the optional EncoreViewer Software can be used.

C-Flex Plus Technology

Flex Technology provides pressure relief for every breath to make breathing with a CPAP more natural. C-Flex Plus technology reduces the pressure during exhalation based on expiratory flow. It also softens the transition between inhalation and exhalation.

System One Resistance Control

To reach optimal pressure, Phillips Respironics developed System One Resistance Control. It is a numbering system that allows the CPAP device to recognize a mask that is used with treatment. It achieves accuracy and reliability by instructing the device to compensate for the specific mask type.

System One Humidity Control with Dry Box Technology (optional)

System One Humidity Control closely monitors humidity levels for potential rainout. Using internal and external sensors, the optimal relative humidity level is determined. If there is a large difference between the room temperature and the hose temperature, there is a greater chance for more moisture to form. System One Humidity Control analyzes ambient air temperature to determine whether moisture will form. Based on the air data, the machine adjusts humidity levels to reduce moisture in the CPAP tube.

Dry Box Technology has also been added to prevent water damage. The Dry Box acts as a reservoir, preventing humidifier water from entering the CPAP machine.

Both the Auto-Trial and Auto-Check Phase may be bypassed. The PR System One REMstar Pro CPAP Machine with AutoIQ can be set in the CPAP mode and used soley as a therapy tracking, single pressure CPAP machine.

Each time the machine has completed an Auto-Trial period the machine will enter the Auto-Check mode. The PR System One REMstar Pro CPAP Machine with AutoIQ machine will automatically set to a pressure that the patient was at or below 90% of the time during the most recent Auto-Trail period.

Unless otherwise instructed, at the time of shipment to the patient the PR System One REMstar Pro CPAP Machine with AutoIQ will be set to the factory default of a 7 Day Auto-Trial mode at a pressure range of 4 - 20 cm wp. At the conclusion of the Auto-Trial period, the machine will automatically change to the Auto-Check mode.

For the purposes of the PR System One REMstar Pro CPAP Machine with AutoIQ a day is defined as a minimum of 1 hour of use during a 24 hour period as marked by noon Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Multiple sessions of use during one 24 period count toward that one day of information gathering.

Auto-Check Phase may be bypassed. CPAP mode can be entered directly.

Once the device is returned to Auto-Trial Phase, a new 90% default pressure will be established.

What is CPAP therapy?

CPAP stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. CPAP therapy is the most commonly recommended, and the most effective, treatment for obstructive sleep apnea.

A CPAP machine provides air at a constant prescribed pressure. The air is delivered to the person through a tube and a CPAP mask. CPAP therapy provides a constant airflow which keeps the airway open so uninterrupted breathing is maintained during sleep. The air stream eliminates Sleep Apnea events and allows the person to get a restful sleep.

The level of air pressure required to maintain your airway is determined during your sleep study. Your doctor will write a prescription for a CPAP machine set at that pressure.

CPAP therapy is delivered through a nasal mask that seals around the nose, nasal pillows which seal at the nasal opening, or nasal prong masks that seal inside the nares. Full face masks are available for a person who breathes through both the nose and mouth. Many innovative and comfortable options are available and advances in the delivery of CPAP therapy are continually occurring.

For instance: Some machines offer a comfort feature such as FLEX or EPR technology. It provides exhalation relief, a slight drop in pressure at the time of exhalation to help make therapy more natural. APAP, BiPAP and BiLevel machines offer various levels of pressure throughout the night.

What comes with my machine?

Machines come with a six foot hose, power cord, at least one filter, and manuals. Most manufacturers include a carrying case which is designed specifically for their equipment. CPAP, APAP, and BiPAP machines do not come with a delivery system or mask. CPAP masks must be purchased separately.

To see the list of what specifically comes with each machine, you can Browse for a machine. Then on the product page, click the "Specs" tab to see a full list of what comes with the machine.

What maintenance is required on machines?

The only care a CPAP, APAP or BiPAP machine requires is to clean or change the filters at the air intake. This keeps the internal parts from accumulating dust. Fine paper filters should be changed out every 30 days, or when they appear soiled. Foam washable filters should be rinsed with clear running water once a week, allowed to air dry, and reinserted.

Here are some other suggested actions to care for your machine:

Keep the area around your machine clean by removing any dust from the area to improve the air quality delivered to your machine and to you.
Keep the air intake of the machine unblocked. Curtains, bedding, and papers can easily block the air intake of your machine, reducing the airflow.
If a humidifier is used with your therapy, do not pick up the machine with the humidifier attached. With most machines it is easy to spill water from the humidifier chamber into the machine causing damage. Manufacturer warranties are voided by water damage to the machine. To avoid this, remove the chamber from the humidifier and then remove the humidifier from the machine rather than transporting them together.
If a humidifier is used, empty the water from the chamber every morning. Accidents happen. If a family pet or family member moves the machine and humidifier with water in the chamber it is more likely that water could be spilled into your machine. Water damage to a machine voids the manufacturer warranty.

Are prescriptions required for mask, machine, humidifier, and EPAP purchases?

Yes. Federal law requires we have a valid prescription on file before we ship your mask, machine, humidifier, or EPAP therapy, including Provent and Bongo RX. You will also need a prescription to purchase the Nightbalance POSA device.

We provide many easy ways to get your prescription:

We can request your prescription for you! When you checkout, just let us know you would like us to request your prescription, or you can log into your account to have us request your prescription.
Fax your prescription to our toll-free fax number: 866.353.2727, or our international fax number: 713.541.7377
Email your prescription to cpap@cpap.com
Upload your prescription in your account, under the Prescriptions Section
Ask your doctor to fill out our prescription form. We have both a standard prescription form and an EPAP prescription form.

For more information on prescriptions, please see our Prescription Section of the Learning Center.

Which CPAP masks work on which machines?

Any mask will work with any machine, with one important exception. The ResMed AirMini is only compatible with certain ResMed CPAP masks. Compatible masks for the AirMini are as follows:

ResMed AirFit™ N20 Nasal Mask
ResMed AirFit™ F20 Full Face
ResMed AirTouch™ F20 Full Face
ResMed AirFit™ P10 Nasal Pillow

When considering another CPAP, APAP or BiPAP machine from ResMed or any other manufacturer, mask compatibility extends to all brands. The AirMini uses non-standard tubing to connect the machine to the mask, and is the primary reason why other masks won't work with the AirMini. Despite this issue, many of our customers consider the AirMini to be an excellent machine.

Working Well

Verified purchase | Feb. 22, 2013 | Verified CPAP.com Customer

First time using C Flex, but adjusted to it quickly. Good having the disc to send to my doctor to read. Ordering and shipping went smoothly. Have been a cpap user since 2005.

★★★★★

Excellent Unit

Verified purchase | Feb. 15, 2013 | Verified CPAP.com Customer

I have been using the REMstar Pro CPAP machine but not the IQ version, as a rental machine and liked it. I gave back the rental and purchased this one out of my pocket. I especially like the Auto IQ feature when I can titrate myself and reestablish the proper pressure what this machine does automatically. Well worth the price. An the service from CPAP.com is nothing short of Excellent as always.

Very quiet compared to my last one I love it

★★★★★

So Far so Good

Verified purchase | Jan. 08, 2013 | Verified CPAP.com Customer

Just changed this to upgrade so I would have an intelligent CPAP to keep the air levels constant. It is really quiet, nothing significant to report after using for a few days though.

The only comment is the nozzle on the humidifier is in a position where it can be broken when transporting.

Delightfully quiet!

Verified purchase | Aug. 18, 2012 | Verified CPAP.com Customer

I bought this to replace an old REMstar M-series. I thought the M-series was reasonably quiet, especially after adding a "whisper cap" that I bought from CPAP.com. Well, let me tell you, if you have an old M-series machine, you don't know how much quieter life could be! The new machine is almost silent! It's taking me a while to get used to the Cflex+ versus my old machine's Cflex. My AHI numbers are slightly higher (but still acceptable), but they are decreasing night by night, so I think once I'm used to the cflex+, things will be fine (and, who knows, maybe better than with the old machine).
