Respironics REMstar Auto DS550S CPAP Machine

Respironics Sleep Therapy System REMstar Auto CPAP Machine

REMstar Auto A-Flex Features

Respironics has consistently offered smarter tools that help sleep professionals provide better care and achieve better results. Now, based on customer input, we're delivering an even higher level of sophistication in a series of intelligent therapy devices that think and act the way you've told us they should.

System Includes

• SD Card
• Advanced Event Detection
• Resistence Control
• Auto Flex
• Advanced Event Response

System One Humidity Control (humidifier not included in this package)

• System One Humidity Control prevents rainout by maintaining a consistent mask humidity.
• Patients choose the mask humidity setting (1 - 5) that is most comfortable for them.
• System One Humidity Control maintains a consistent mask humidity by monitoring and adjusting for changes in room temperature and room humidity.
• Other manufacturers' devices only monitor, and adjust for, room temperature; as a result, rainout may occur.

System One Resistance Control

System One Resistance Control achieves complete system comfort by enabling the device and mask to work optimally together. Through simple settings, the technology instructs the device to compensate for variable resistance characteristics related to different masks. The result is synchronous pressure delivery and the assurance patients can enjoy the full benefits of our Flex comfort technologies no matter which Philips Respironics mask is used.

Flex Family

Our natural and clinically-proven technologies that enhance traditional pressure therapy – C-Flex, Bi-Flex, A-Flex, and now C-Flex+ in our fixed-CPAP advanced units – are an excellent way to establish improved patient comfort and increased compliance.

Clinical studies show patients on Flex use their therapy on average more than four hours per night at both 30 and 90 days compared with an average of less than four hours per night when using traditional CPAP.

Find the right choice. Each Philips Respironics Sleep Therapy System device has an on-board Flex Demo mode to allow patients to feel the difference for themselves. It's as easy as pressing a button.

Advanced Event Detection

We've built in more device intelligence so that you can make the most informed decisions possible. Our new sleep system addresses advanced sleep assessment parameters including AHI, large leak, flow limitation and RERAs that help you determine appropriate clinical management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

But the real advancement is its ability to point out when a patient is experiencing symptoms beyond classic OSA. With intelligent technology that can identify clear airway apneas and periodic breathing, the system immediately indicates the potential need for specialized therapy. With our new system, all events can now be verified by looking at detailed patient flow waveform data captured by the device.

Auto Algorithm

A smarter algorithm that maintains effective therapy at minimum pressures.

What makes the REMstar Auto algorithm so different? Unlike other algorithms, the REMstar Auto can manage an event in the early stages rather than waiting for it to occur. Because small degrees of flow limitations are usually present before the onset of a complete obstruction or apnea, our algorithm is designed to proactively seek out these early indications and adjust pressure to resolve an event before it occurs.

Here is my review on the Respironics auto cpap Jatana (Pueblo) 12/22/2011 2:43 PM I bought it without the humidifier because I wanted something small to travel with and I havent used a humidifier for years. I was pleasantly suprised to see how light weight and portable this cpap machine is. Easy to use and I would recommend it to anyone (that doesnt need a humidifier lol)
