What is an APAP Machine?

APAP Machine (Automatic Positive Airway Pressure Therapy) is also known as automatic CPAP devices. They automatically adjust the air pressure to your individual needs during the night to ensure that you receive the lowest pressure required. This can significantly increase the comfort of your therapy.

The device is placed next to your bed on the bedside table and is connected to the mask via a tube.

Why choose an APAP machine?

Effective and personalized treatment for different sleep disorders

APAP machines are versatile and suitable for treating various sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), central sleep apnoea (CSA), complex sleep apnoea syndrome and hypopnoea. Thanks to the dynamic adjustment of pressure, they can respond to different breathing patterns and individual needs.
Personalized therapy: APAP machines Australia provide personalized therapy by continuously monitoring the patient's breathing and adjusting the pressure in real time. This flexibility ensures that the patient always receives the required pressure, minimizing the risk of over- or under-treatment.

Increased comfort and adaptability to changing pressure requirements

Adaptation to position changes: As sleep positions and phases change during the night, APAP machines adapt to these changes and ensure that the patient receives the optimal pressure - regardless of whether they are sleeping on their back or side.
Improved adherence to therapy: The increased comfort of APAP therapy often leads to greater adherence to therapy. Patients who find their therapy comfortable and effective use the device regularly and therefore achieve better results in the long term.

Reduced risk of pressure-related discomfort and side effects

Less discomfort: Unlike CPAP devices, which deliver a constant pressure, APAP machine for sale only deliver the pressure needed to keep the airways open. This adjustment reduces the risk of discomfort such as pressure sores and nasal congestion.
Reduced side effects: The adaptability of APAP machine reduces common problems such as air swallowing and mask leakage, making therapy more comfortable and tolerable.

Continuous monitoring and adjustment for optimal therapy

Real-time therapy optimization: APAP machines continuously monitor treatment and allow healthcare professionals to adjust therapy as needed. This ensures that the treatment remains effective in the long term and is optimally tailored to the patient.

How to Use Your CPAP Machine?

Choosing the right place for the CPAP machine

The first step is to find a suitable location for the CPAP machine. The location should meet the following requirements:

- Provides a stable base for the device

- Allows the tube to be routed to the head end of the bed

- Is close to a power socket so that the device can be plugged in easily

- Provides sufficient space to switch on the device, open the filter and fill the humidifier with water

- For most people, a bedside table or a small table next to the bed is best.

Checking the filter

The APAP machine comes with a replaceable filter. The exact type of filter depends on the device. There is usually a small compartment in which the filter is inserted. You will find detailed instructions on how to do this either in the instructions for use or from your sleep technician.

Connecting the tube to the CPAP device

The device has a special connection for the tube. It should be easy to attach and fit securely.

Connecting the tube to the mask
The other end of the tube is connected to the CPAP mask. A tight connection should be made, often with a click mechanism.

Set up the humidifier (if available)

Many APAP machine have an integrated CPAP humidifiers to humidify the air and prevent the mouth and throat from drying out. Only use distilled water to avoid mineral deposits.

Connecting the CPAP device

Ensure that the power cable is connected correctly and plug the device into a socket.

Put on and adjust the mask

Place the mask on your face and adjust the straps so that the mask fits snugly without exerting uncomfortable pressure.

Switching on the device

Switch on the APAP machine and make sure that the pressure is set as specified by your doctor.

Find a comfortable sleeping position

Try out different sleeping positions that are comfortable, do not interfere with the mask and do not cause the tube to kink.
