Will clear when:

•the low pressure condition is fixed

•treatment is stopped by pressing the Start/Stop key.

Power Fail Alarm

Triggered by:

•power failure

•machine is disconnected or switched off while delivering treatment.

If a power fail alarm sounds:

•the flow generator stops delivering air pressure.

Will stop:

•when the Alarm Mute key is pressed, or

•after two minutes, or

•when power is restored.

CAUTION

! Remove the mask from your face if the power fails.

High Pressure / High Average Pressure Alarms

Triggered by:

•High Pressure Alarm: the mask pressure exceeds the set trigger level (30 cm H2O) for more than 700 milliseconds.

•High Average Pressure Alarm: the mask pressure exceeds the set trigger level (22 cm H2O), averaged over approximately one minute.

If a high pressure alarm sounds:

1.The treatment will stop.

2.Turn power off.

3.Check that the air tube and sensor tube are connected properly.

4.Turn power back on.

5.Remove mask and perform Air Circuit Learn function.

6.Try using the flow generator one more time.

7.If the high pressure alarm activates repeatedly, discontinue use and return to ResMed for servicing. If the alarm does not recur, then continue to use as normal.

Note: The alarm system is designed to ignore coughing. However, if a cough is especially intense and prolonged, it may trigger the high pressure alarm.

Will stop when:

•the VPAP Adapt SV is turned off.

VPAP Adapt SV specifications

The ResMed VPAP Adapt SV is a cutting-edge device designed to improve the quality of life for patients suffering from complex sleep apnea conditions, including central and obstructive sleep apnea. It combines advanced technology with user-friendly features to provide effective therapy while ensuring maximum comfort for users.

A standout feature of the VPAP Adapt SV is its Adaptive Servo-Ventilation (ASV) algorithm. This proprietary technology continuously monitors a patient’s breathing patterns and adjusts the airflow accordingly. By providing just the right amount of pressure support during inhalation and maintaining a minimal backup rate during exhalation, the device ensures optimal ventilation while minimizing the risk of over-ventilation. This responsiveness is crucial for patients who may experience fluctuating airway resistance and varying degrees of respiratory events.

The VPAP Adapt SV is equipped with a sophisticated data management system that tracks treatment progress in real time. It automatically collects information about usage, leak rates, and overall pressure settings, which can be easily accessed and reviewed by healthcare providers. This data-driven approach facilitates personalized treatment adjustments, empowering both patients and clinicians to make informed decisions.

Comfort is enhanced through various design features, including a quiet operation mechanism that minimizes noise disruption during sleep. The device offers a range of pressure settings that can be tailored to individual needs, allowing for a comfortable therapeutic experience. The VPAP Adapt SV is compatible with ResMed’s range of CPAP masks, which are ergonomically designed to fit securely without compromising comfort.

Another notable characteristic is its user-friendly interface, which simplifies the setup and adjustments needed for optimal therapy. Patients can easily navigate through various options on the bright display screen, making it accessible for users of all ages.

Additionally, the VPAP Adapt SV’s compact design makes it a portable option for those who travel frequently. It comes with a carrying case and can operate on both AC and DC power sources, ensuring that patients can maintain their therapy wherever they go.

In conclusion, the ResMed VPAP Adapt SV represents a significant advancement in respiratory therapy. With its Adaptive Servo-Ventilation technology, comprehensive data management, and focus on patient comfort, it provides a holistic approach to managing complex sleep apnea, making it a preferred choice for healthcare providers and patients alike.
