Devilbiss IntelliPAP AutoAdjust CPAP -

SKU : DV54D

DeVilbiss Healthcare’s own unique, exhalation relief technology called SmartFlex allows the CPAP user to exhale and inhale more naturally and helps to eliminate abrupt pressure adjustments that can cause arousals from sleep.

The IntelliPAP AutoAdjust unit can be operated in both conventional CPAP and AutoAdjust modes.

AutoAdjust features include:
Automatic pressure adjustment based on event density and type
Adjustable definition of apnea and hypopnea (percentage and duration)
Adjustable upper and lower pressure limits
Adjustable delay setting for up to four hours
Automatic detection of mask conditions and ultra-sensitive snoring detection

DeVilbiss SmartFlex offers three pressure comfort settings:
Each setting equates to an exact 1 cm H20 drop in pressure upon exhalation

This drop in pressure will last the entire duration of exhalation
Unlike some other technologies, SmartFlex will be suspended any time the flow generator senses an insufficient respiration (i.e. Apnea)

Also, unlike competitors’ solutions, SmartFlex is available during ramp delay.

DeVilbiss SmartFlex also features patented Flow Rounding which changes the slope of the pressure waveform during the transition from prescription pressure to the SmartFlex setting and vice versa. This enables a smooth transition and decreases the likelihood of waking the CPAP user. There are six levels of flow rounding with level 0 having the steepest slope and quickest transition and level five having the gentlest slope and slowest transition.

This IntelliPAP CPAP includes SmartCode. SmartCode is an alpha-numeric code that is shown on the display of the IntelliPAP. Much like a bar code, the character and sequence of the characters contain vital CPAP usage data in an encrypted form. Once the code is decrypted using our on-line SmartCode Report Generator, usage data - and depending on the device, efficacy data - is presented in an easy-to-read and understand report. Reports can be saved as a pdf and placed in the patient’s record.

The benefits of SmartCode are that the CPAP does not need to be directly connected to the computer, nor does it use memory cards. SmartCode is available in every model of IntelliPAP without additional fees or equipment/software, and provides insightful data that can be used to determine a patient's compliance and monitor the effectiveness of the prescribed therapy.
