The Philips-Respironics "System One" REMstar takes a smarter approach to
the entire sleep management process. The PR System One uses a SD card
for data collection. Prior to the System One, patients were required to
use a specialized card reader when uploading sleep data to a computer.
Philips-Respironics has made this process easier by using the standard
SD card, giving the patient the ability to use any SD reader to upload
sleep data to the EncorePro or EncoreAnywhere software. The REMstar will
record Patterns of use data only.
System One Humidity Control (optional)
The PR CPAP humidifier and water chamber design are breakthroughs for
managing rain-out and water damage. System One Humidity Control
technology analyzes ambient temperature and patient airflow to reach
relative humidity at the mask. Choose from 5 levels of relative
humidity.
System One is the first humidifier in the industry which
accounts for room humidity. Sensors inside and outside the CPAP machine
closely monitor changes in humidity and prevents condensation from
forming inside the tube.
Dry Box technology is another breakthrough in reducing water
damage to the CPAP. Several unique designs are incorporated into the
humidifier to prevent water from exiting the chamber. To start, the air
outlet port has been moved from the side of the humidifier onto the
top. This centers the entire delivery; minimizing the total water
displacement around the hole. The water chamber is outfitted with
one-way valve, between the machine and the humidifier. Any water that
manages to escape the chamber gets trapped within the Dry Box, which
acts as a reservoir for any water ingress past the valve.
System One and Dry Box Technology make it possible for the PR
CPAP machines to be truly spill-free. This humidifier, even with a
chamber filled to the "Full" indicator line, can be tilted, shaken, and
even turned upside down without water leaking back into the device.
System One Resistance Control
Respironics wanted a machine to achieve optimal pressure no
matter which mask is used. Resistance Control is the solution, a
numbering system on all of Respironics CPAP masks based on variable
resistance characteristics. Each number instructs the device to
compensate for different mask types. The result? A consistent and
reliable pressure enhanced with all the benefits of Flex Technology no
matter which mask is used.
Flex Family Technology
Flex Technology is designed to enhance traditional CPAP therapy;
maintaining effective therapy at minimal pressures. Users new to CPAP
equipment find the Flex feature provides airflow at just the right
pressure relief for every breath and makes adapting to CPAP therapy
easier.
C-Flex offers a comfortable way to deliver sleep therapy by
giving pressure relief at exhalation. Pressure is lowered based on a
breath-per-breath analysis and provides up to 3 levels of relief based
on the patient's expiratory flow.
C-FLex Plus is a new enhancement added to PR Pro and Auto CPAP
machines. Similar to C-Flex, the technology provides pressure relief
during exhalation based on expiratory flow. C-Flex+ minimizes the
pressure transition and provides additional comfort when in fixed-CPAP
mode. In addition, C-Flex+ softens the breathing cycle between
inhalation to exhalation.Specifications
