System One Humidity Control

• 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.

1800cpap saved me loads of money on their products Jessica (NSW, AU) 12/22/2011 1:47 PM I had a machine for hire and needed to purchase one right away. I ordered from your company and had my APAP machine to me in 5 days. I could not be more greatful for your price (I didn't even pay any duties). Cheers!

A Great Deal on a Great Machine! Cory (Tennessee) 12/22/2011 1:35 PM I cant believe how much I saved by shopping with you guys. I had a loaner cpac from my sleep lab and they told me how much one would be through my insurance and I said forget that-I am just going to shop online. I am so glad I found you and the price you gave me on this machine just cant be beat. I love 1800cpap.com and I keep telling my friends about you guys. Thanks again

This machine rocks Steven S (NY) 12/22/2011 1:32 PM I been using this machine for 3 weeks now and can notice a complete change in my life. I chose this one over that resmed one because this one just looks more durable and I travel alot. simple to use buttons and its alot quieter than i though one might be. thanks again 1800cpap

New to cpap Bradley Marsh (Dover) 2/20/2010 11:31 AM I am new to this cpap thing and have only had this machine for 3 weeks. I wear my cpap for about 5 hours at night before I have to take it off. Got some really good advice from the therapist here on how to get more out of it and I think its working. Not sure the difference between this cpap machine and the next but I figured the more expensive the machine the better. Also my doctor recommended this one so it must be good-he is. Hope this review helps
