Two-pressure therapy — higher on inhale, lower on exhale — for higher-pressure needs or difficulty exhaling against CPAP. Prescription specifics apply; our team can help.
BiPAP (Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure) machines provide two different pressure levels: a higher pressure when you breathe in (IPAP) and a lower pressure when you breathe out (EPAP). This dual-pressure approach makes breathing more natural and comfortable, especially for patients who require higher therapy pressures.
BiPAP machines are typically prescribed for patients who require higher pressure settings that may be uncomfortable with standard CPAP, those with central sleep apnoea or complex sleep apnoea, patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and individuals who have difficulty exhaling against constant CPAP pressure.
The key difference is that CPAP delivers one constant pressure, while BiPAP provides separate inhalation and exhalation pressures. The average cost of a BiPAP machine is $1,350, compared to $800 for a standard CPAP machine. Your sleep specialist will determine if BiPAP therapy is appropriate based on your specific condition.
