BiPAP & CPAP Respiratory Care

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP) therapies deliver pressurized ambient air through a mask to maintain open airways during sleep.

• CPAP / AutoCPAP: Delivers a continuous, automatically adjusting pressure level to prevent airway collapse—the gold standard for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).

• BiPAP / Bilevel: Delivers dual pressure levels (higher for inhalation, lower for exhalation) to assist ventilation, ideal for patients requiring ventilatory support alongside airway stenting.

Clinical Indications

Positive airway pressure therapy is prescribed for several chronic respiratory and sleep-related conditions:

• Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): Alleviates airway obstruction, choking episodes, and chronic heavy snoring.

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): BiPAP support reduces the work of breathing and manages nighttime carbon dioxide retention.

• Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome (OHS): Assists ventilation against chest-wall resistance.

• Neuromuscular & Chest-Wall Disorders: Supports breathing muscles compromised by neurological conditions.

• Post-Operative Recovery: Short-term usage under medical supervision to treat atelectasis and shallow breathing.
