Alarm specifications

•High maximum mask pressure alarm Stops air delivery at 30 cm H2O >700 msec.

•High mean mask pressure alarm

Stops air delivery when mean mask pressure exceeds 22 cm H2O (averaged over approx 1 minute).

•Low mask pressure alarm

Mask pressure is less than 3 cm H2O for longer than 5 seconds while the patient is using the VPAP Adapt SV.

•Insufficient pressure support alarm

Is triggered if for 3 breaths in a row the maximum mask pressure achieved at inspiratory to expiratory transition is either <87.5% of the absolute mask pressure targeted at that point, or < absolute mask pressure targeted minus 1 cm H2O, whichever is the lower.

•High leak alarm

Leak exceeds 30 L/min for more than 20 seconds.

•Flow blocked alarm

Flow is less than 6 L/min for more than 20 seconds.

IEC 601-1 classifications

Class II, Type CF

Class II medical electrical equipment provides protection against electric shock either by double insulation or reinforced insulation and does not require a protective earth.

Inspiratory Trigger Characteristics

The inspiratory trigger occurs at a flow greater than 0 LPM when tested with EPAP=5 cm H2O, IPAP=15 cm H2O, sinisoidal breath shape. The inspiratory trigger response time is <600 ms when tested with EPAP=5 cm H2O, IPAP=15 cm H2O, 0.67 L/sec inspiratory and expiratory flow rate. The time is measured from the beginning of inspiratory flow to the beginning of pressure rise to IPAP.

Note: The ASV algorithm is designed to treat a patient with essentially normal lungs. Hence, trigger response is less sensitive and pressure ramp-up is more gentle than typical non-invasive ventilators.

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.
