The right support at the right time—adapting breath-by-breath

VPAP Adapt SV™ is an adaptive servo-ventilator designed specifically to treat central sleep apnea (CSA) in all its forms, including complex and mixed sleep apnea.

Unlike conventional sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) therapies such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), adaptive servo-ventilation:

• treats complex sleep apnea syndrome and central sleep apnea
• normalizes breathing, completely suppressing CSA and/or Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR)2,3
• improves sleep architecture2 (the amount of time the patient spends in slow-wave and REM sleep increases).
  

Peer-reviewed literature shows that adaptive servo-ventilation:

• enhances quality of life for patients with CSA3,4.

Support when it's needed

The adaptive servo-ventilation algorithm:

• adapts to the patient’s ventilatory needs on a breath-by-breath basis
• automatically calculates a target ventilation (90% of the patient's recent average ventilation)
• adjusts the pressure support to achieve it.

Maximizing patient comfort and compliance

• ensures pressure support is synchronized to the patient's own recent breathing rate and flow pattern
• provides a constant, low level of pressure support.
